Doesn't really matter, I'm planning to start slow, simple basic needs first. Oil cooler to make sure the engine is running at proper temps, it gets hot here in the summer especially. I'll probably address the ride height and then AEM dryflow air filters, Z1 Silicone Post-MAF Intake Hoses, K&N Drop-In Air Filter, JWT Dual POP Intake (meby).

We'll see.

The POP intake is pointless, the stock boxes see better gains. The only real benefit of the pop charger is the increased engine noise which sounds pretty cool.

The F.I. exhaust is amazing! Don't get that tune until after you have an exhaust on otherwise that'd be a big waste. Finish your bolt-ons, then tune. I have the F.I. non-res and it sounds like sex! The only downside is the slight drone at highway speeds 65-80. The 12 or 18" res would take care of - I just wanted the loudest combo possible. It's loud, but bearable and has definitely quieted down a bit after being broken in. I've heard F.I. next to the HKS (arguable one of the best systems out there) and the F.I. is much deeper and more powerful sounding. Plus at $1100 it can't be beat, FI FTW!

Congrats on the purchase and welcome aboard! Great color choice by the way.

Yeah I went with Drop-Ins + MAFs instead of POP charger.
