Sounds like you have a good list there. Can't go wrong with Volk, contact Andy@performance when you're ready and maybe he'll do a package deal if you order everything through him.

sounds like a nice list of mods you got going there, beware of the bug, once you start, you won't stop!!!! Keep us posted on the progress. I have eibach pro-kit and imo it's a perfect drop!

I wouldn't do the pop charger. It's an '06, stock airbox with drop-in filter FTW.

Sorry to hijack this thread but I have an 06 with a JWT popcharger, could you go into a little more detail about why this doesn't work too well. I personally haven't noticed any difference but I don't drive the car every day.

Can someone please elaborate on this comment?? I have an 06 with a JWT pop charger and I have had no obvious symptoms so I am curious as to why he would post somthing like this.
