Stock OEM replacement mods list ...
Performance
1. ITG/Green/K&N air filters?
2. Shorty Headers (e.g. Evosport, or my new project)
3. 2 Piece rotors (e.g. Evosport or E63 version)
4. Carbon Fibre Airbox / Engine cover (thanks Vrus! - includes heat treatment).
5. 19" (or other) light weight Rims.
6. Sticky wider rubber (e.g. Mich PS2, Yoko Advan AD07)
7. Full VMax software delimit
8. ECU remap for higher octane fuel (only if this can be returned to stock)
9. Uprated intercooler pump. (e.g. Johnson, although I still like the Stewart unit).
10. Heat wrap intake tubes ... (maybe in CF with insulation sandwich).
11. 160 deg theromostat.
12. -10 deg fan turn on.
13. Star diagnostics lowering
Aesthetics
1. Illuminted door sills (although not convinced on this yet).
2. MP Design Steering Wheel.
3. Video / DVD play while you drive. (Video In motion)
4. Paddle shifters on steering wheel.
All the above can be brought back to stock for warranty purposes quite simply...
This list also allows this but is more difficult....
1. Quaife LSD (PITA fitting)
2. Brembo GT front brake upgrade kit. (380mm floating disc, new caliper & pads need 19" min diam rims though)
3. 80mm TB mod (thanks Vrus - PITA fitting though as SC has to come out)
4. 70mm SS exhaust (with 2 or 4 cats thanks Vrus - this sits in this category as I could never get one shipped to the UK!).
5. ELM lowering - (have to cut into wiring harness ... so there is always evidence of something been done.)
Anything I am missing ?
