Downpipes, BM3 Stage 2, and muffler delete was all I needed for daily driving. Sounds amazing, not too loud, little drone, and pulls like a train. Not many people do intakes because there is not alot of gain in HP for the $$ but you can build a custom intake for cheap to reduce IATs. Imo the oem setup is very flawed. I do alot of city driving and my IATs are hovering ~40F above ambient.

Springs you'll have to research yourself. IIRC, the Eibachs are a minor drop compared to H&R. I just installed Megans in the front and I absolutely hated doing the work myself. Dreading to do the back. If you can get a good deal on labor I would save yourself the headaches. Pretty straight forward install but compressing and installing new springs was very tricky and time consuming.



I'm probably going to go for the H&R. Lots of good indy shops in my area so getting a decent deal on the springs install shouldn't be that hard. I saw the Burger S63Tu intakes and the ARM N63 intakes. Do these work on the TU?
