May I. Advise k&n filters, silicone hoses and stillen ground wire kit, just to improve transmission and throttle response. Midpipe resonators not needed. Also improves throttle. Car is stil quiet at idle, but louder on cold start and quick revving. It really wakes up. Makes it feel more like the sports car it should be.
Yup, paddle shifters are great. Got it in my GTI and it's very quick. Problem on the GTI is it turns with the wheel. To me it's much better in a fixed position.

Regarding transmission, wonder if there will be some tweaks on the 2013 to improve it? Getting the 6mt with my 2013Z, so getting the best of both worlds regarding trans.
