Well, I don't know how I got logged into someone's name but I made their first post...

Anyways, back to subject, I like tinkering more than hardcore tuning for power. Trying to do anything with an n/a isn't too fruitless, and especially when i got it rebuilt and streetported 2.5 years ago I really didn't want to do anything to it and risk screwing it up since it is my daily driver. I have done the basic stuff, intake, exhaust, stereo, removed air pump, electric fan, but I really don't want to spend any more money on it because I am trying to save for a new car.

Well since someone wrecked my S5 within a couple months I had no time to do anything... but then I was graciously able to borrow money for another one and after replacing the rotors, pads, plugs, oil, alternator and mufflers its running so smooth I'd swear it wasn't the same car. I dont wanna risk tearing the crap outta it when I haven't paid it off yet but I installed coilovers and an intake. When its paid off its getting stripped down to 2400 pnds (or more if I can manage) of pure racer! I'd much rather drive a race car on the street then a stock car on the track. I doubt peoples opinions on the "bling" factor will matter when I leave them in the dust and chew them up on the track.
