Boost-a-pump, retune on maybe e98, slick setup, suspension, nlts, and hopefully the biggest thing I need/want is a driver mod to get the most out of it.

Fix blowby, maybe get the new FIC 1650 injectors, then probably run out of fuel pump.

Oh and probably upgrade to 3/s calipers in the front and evos in the rear. I want to eliminate all the ABS stuff because the pedal feels squishy, we'll see how much work that involves.

Muahaha, awesome plans everyone! I plan to keep ripping up pavement, snow, and ice with my new snow tires (just mounted this AM), install nice aluminum undertray (ordered, should be in this week, install when I get back from vacay over the holiday).

Need to tune my new cams and stay on E85 or switch back to BP92/alky.

Over the winter, project bl1ng: start replacing some of the un-shiny stock stuff with a little more polished and clean parts. This project usually takes a back seat to other stuff, but hopefully I'll find the time to do a little here and there ;)

Other stuff: stiffer rear diff bushings and maybe solid driveshaft bushings, hunt for a set of bilstein MR shocks, bleed brakes & install new set of SS brake lines (current ones have a small unconstitutional crack in the upper boot), maybe paint the A,B, and C pillars black to match the rest of the car, and work on my rosey-pod v2!

GLI will stay as-is, *might* be looking for a set of springs for it once the snow starts to melt, but otherwise it will be anna's daily driver and my random FWD toy whenever the mood arises :)
