1st Mods(Cooling)
Intercooler Pump Upgrade, Split Cooling, Larger Heat Exchanger.

2nd Mods(Power)
175MM Crank Pulley + tune
or
Long Tube Headers + tune
or
Both

3rd Mods
No need.

Intercooler Pump + Split Cooling + Larger H/E + 175MM Pulley + Long Tube Headers + Tune ~ 600HP/650TQ (FLYWHEEL). This is enough power to destroy 95% cars out there.

Don't do 180mm if you're a daily driver. From experience, I heat soaked quicker on 180.

Let me state this in a very pleasant way so you can fully digest it. The car itself without any modifications whatsoever is a beast. This car was powerful 10 years ago and still is powerful today. With those mods, you will be pushing the car to levels that most cars can never get. It will literally be a jet. The boost is jaw-dropping, spine-tingling, and above all, the rush is like a drug deep in your veins. But, my good sir, I must remind you that with speed comes danger/recklnessnes and the chances of ****ing up. The picture below used to be my E55 that I crashed. Let that be a lesson to you to be safe and take effort into being a good citizen and not ****ing peoples or your life.



Good luck.
