Yeah I’ll just listen to my wife go “pssshhh” when I make fun of her lol
You are trying to keep warranty and your wife happy at the same time. You are a glutton for punishment.

With GFB hybrid set to 50/50 what will that provide performance wise
It could possibly hold boost better than stock that has some miles on it. Most likely to work with a 7 speed, not so much with a 6 speed. This was designed and built in Australia. They don't have the 6 speed.

I am fine with that. I also want it to remain reliable. I want to tinker and have fun. But reliability for the commute is most important.

Yeah that makes sense. So more designed for this transmission in mind.
 
Suspension and brakes, better tires. Lots of fun stuff you can do.

Lowering just seems very ricer to me. I also don’t want it to be too stiff.
My nephew has my old spring set up (H&R suspension). It actually rides better and a little smoother than stock. And it looks clean and awesome. Not excessively low and just right for a street car.

Price? Just springs? Or coil overs?

What’s your guy’s thoughts on spark plugs? Increase anything worth getting?

Mine will be here anyways because the concept is great and it wasn’t that expensive. What’s y’alls thought on the velossa tech?? Cooler temps? Noticeable gains?

Might have helped mpg slightly but does not seem to offer any performance benefits under wot based on my Dragy times with it on and off.
