standard j-spec, what first?

hey not had my 7 long and its bloody amazing. still havent got over the 2am drives for the sheer hell of it, or the constant grinning while driving.

but its standard practically (BOOOOOOOOOOO)

got the apex'i n1 exhaust and had the engine rebuilt 5000 miles ago with 3mm seals.

where should i go from here? i was gonna go for looks, but i think i should get the engine running fantastic before i start that. this is gonna have to be in stages cos spent my money on the car really.

its going in for a service soon too so all things like plugs etc will get changed.

have the aluminium air separator tank already as well.

sooooooooooooo...

what now?? power fc and commander for more boost etc?
i was thinking of the mazdaspeed gtc front bumper for improved air flow
intercooler?? (i want a front mount to go with the bumper, does rain damage these???? never thought about it until now!)

cheers

ryan

aluminum cooling system (ast/rad)
synthetic fluids diff/tranny
fresh plugs (wires if needed)
change fuel filter
linearize temp gauge
fan mod switch
downpipe
Intake
pullies
catback

seems like a good start (take a big clunk out of your wallet) and you shouldn't need a computer just yet for more boost.
