Huge difference in smell, small difference in performance.

Yes, I will always suggest being environmentally responsible, sacrifice 1-2 hp and go for a catted DP that will not pollute the environment as much.

Pretty sure ze komfort 3 blinks did not last across all lanes.

Had the IE intercooler installed yesterday by a local tech. Went in seamlessly without any fitment issues.
Wasn't expecting to notice a difference in performance (as I decided to install the IC in anticipation of APR stage 2 +DP sometime next year), but was pleasantly surprised on my drive home. Seemed like more top end power and more audible intake/turbo spool. Am I imagining this or have others had a similar experience at stage 1 +intake?
I've only driven ~15 miles with the new setup (in misting rain) so haven't had a chance to really open it up, but already very happy/surprised with the results.

Not sure as to what company to pick for the tune or stage?
Companies there are quite a few so its just a matter of preference and with who eventually you are comfortable giving your money away too
Stage will depends on what your end goals are and how much you eventually want to spend... (never stops lol)
Your current setup by what I read is pretty much stock so a Stage 1 tune would be the way to go, it’ll give you a nice initial bump in whp/torque.
For turbo noise you could probably get a turbo muffler delete...

Did you get the boost pipes and all the others done? If not might want to look at doing all that in anticipation of the DP and STG2 Tune
and yes, although I did my IC after the DP and was already STG2, the change was immediately audible Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Go faster.
Drive faster than everyone else and there's no one in your blind spot.

From awhile ago, but changed the manual transmission fluid. Here is a sample:

Spent hours trying to improve touch ups on the hood and a door ding.
TMD doesn't do shit, just get an open intake like BMS
