If you've got an '09-11 and you go to the track, you probably will have oil temp issues. Anyone who is serious about tracking spends 500 bucks on an oil cooler - problem fixed. You will also bake the stock braking fluid. It is not meant to handle that kind of abuse. Replace it with higher tolerance braking fluid - problem mostly solved.

Fuel starve is the only track issue that has been largely unaddressed, but it looks like phunk is coming up with an ample solution.


For day to day driving, most of these issues shouldn't arise, unless you're really goosing it. Only time I experienced brake fade was after an 11 hr drive, on stock brake fluid.


, but worth noting that pads will need to be swapped as well for any sort of track use.
