While I wait for Fast intention to announce their automatic tranny upgrade
 
So while I wait for Fast Intentions to announce their automatic transmission upgrade is ready. So I can buy it and my Twin Turbo kit from them. What other things should I upgrade now while I wait so my car is ready to be abused once everything is installed. Please tell me if it is unnecessary or not needed.
What I'm thinking should be upgraded:
LSD (such as mfactory or quirfe)
Body Kit (Allows air better in)
Carbon Fiber vented hood
Amuse Exhaust or F.I. Exhaust haven't decided yet
KW Coilovers
Possible engine upgrade also:
Eagle Rods
Wiseco Forged Pistons

Anything else that anyone can think about greatly appreciated. Price doesn't really matter to an extent.

Forgot to add APR Racing brakes or keep my stock sport package brakes. I already upgraded my tires to RE-11's

Radiator, may I recommend CSF, not MiSHITimoto
Trans cooler.
Diff cooler

I don't think you *need* KW Coilovers... But they will be nice.

I've run the CSF and mishimoto. mishimoto has given me the coolest temps so far, CSF has "b-tube" design but is a smaller core no question. CSF also stripped both plugs within 2 months of me owning it.

Lol, mine stripped as well, switched to a stainless screw and no problems since.
And I'd rather have a US company, local too that I can tell at if need be, but so far, no complaints. Still rather have American than cheap Chinese

Is there any guestimate when Fast Intentions is going to come out with the 7AT upgrade? My 7AT is starting to make me a sad bear because I wan't to run boost in the future but there is no point if I can't lay down the power.

Nothing about the 7AT. :icon17:

I would expect them to have it ready within a few months. Ask Cycy what his status is. They are using his car and tranny for testing.

Ah, I see what you are saying. Focus on the other stuff until Trans upgrade. :tiphat:

They told me to call back in 3 weeks and they would have more details.

A diff is another nice to have mod, but not absolutely necessary. Focus on cooling, fueling, monitoring first. Suspension and diff have to be adjusted based on your driving style or habits.

I am going to be boosting my M6, but I am going to make sure I have everything else as well and do the install all at once. Which kind of makes it a PITA because if something goes wrong, it's going to be a long diagnosis :icon17:

I suppose the only mods I will put in before the boost would be a clutch to wear it in and shocks/struts, perhaps brakes as well...
