1. If you want to leave it stock, this car is still fun to drive.

2. IMO, a cat-back exhaust is must have on this car. Any quality exhaust will make it sound a world appart from the stock exhaust. Be prepared to spend anywhere from $800-$1,300 for a nice setup. There are plenty of options depending on your taste, from louder to insanely loud. With a CBE alone, you won't really need a tune. As far as intakes go, you need to go with long tubes like the Stillen Gen 3's to see any results that are worth the trouble. The stock airbox is pretty effecient, which is why people like myself, have decided to just install drop in filters like the K&N.

If you install HFC/test pipes & headers, you should def get it tuned afterwards. Just remember that these parts are technically for "off-road use only."

3. Twin-Turbo's make will turn this car into a monster, but be prepared to shell out over $10k, loosing your warranty on the drivetrain and the extra effort in maintaining a car with forced induction.
