Hey everyone, i have actually been kinda lurkin around IWSTI for a while now just admiring everyones rides until i FINALLY got mine the other day. I previously had an 05 RS...the difference is literally unbelievable. No mods yet, but I will be starting a journal hopefully within the next few months after the break in period.

congrats man, i came from a wrx, and even i thought the difference was unbelievable lol...cant imagine coming from a RS

[Iguana]

I came from a RX-8. Incredible differnce, but also some loss . Missed the 9000+ rpm redline. Didn't miss the lack of torque.

Welcome aboard

Haha, thanks for the warm welcome guys. As far as mods go (for now) im gonna keep it pretty strait forward and simple. Starting out im probably going to run with:

- of course, tint
- de-badging
- possibly switch out 07's with 05 tails
- turbo gauges
- HKS intake, BOV and exhaust
- Helix DNA coilovers
- V-ltd. front lip
- front and rear struts
- rear diffuser

That is about it... pretty basic. Trust me though, it will start to build off that more and more very soon. I am open to any suggestions you guys have toward what might be better/top manufacturers etc. Thanks again for the welcome.
