Also, RE: oil cooler -- I'll be testing out those ARC cool fins soon. If they drop temps by 10 -15* F, I'd say that will cover most folks who are seeing temps over 220 regularly unless they are tracking it.

Behold:

I also have two stuck on my diff cover

OP,

your list is solid. On the other hand, are you happy with the handling of the car? For me, handling was more impt so I went with sways, followed by c/o, big brakes, Hfc, oil cooler and lastly Nismo exhaust.

My faulty logic tells me that the car in stock form already has enough HP to last me for a while. Don't get me wrong, now that I am done with handling, I would install a supercharger or TT If I have the extra money.

Was it Pirelli who had the motto: "power is nothing without control.". Cheers!

For what im doing right now which is just weekend fun maybe a track day or two down the road, its handling is great for me. My car before this was a E46M3 so I had almost the exact ammount of power and I feel like I need some more. I will eventually tackle improving handling but its taking a back seat to power at the moment. thx for the input, im out of reps so ill have to continue repping tomo btw!

The CBE will give you good gains and make the sound so much better and if you like the FI style you get that two. So its a threefer.

I'd do some suspension mods early on, personally...
