Mike the exhaust sounds good but I agree probably too quiet. at least given my highly calibrated ear dyno to computer speaker ratio.

Video was pretty whack but the only good ish one I could find of a G on air

and that is what I assume to be the basic kit with all manual paddles/valves for management. Which is what I would get initially and then upgrade from there.

Dont cheap on switches. If you want it to ride right, digital is best for consistent tire wear

Can't wait for stage 1 APR tune :)
I feel silicone coupler complete set and silicone coolant hose kit is on order soon with a new high flow intake. Later, better intercoolers. Going easy on it, want to lower the heat soak and possible future issues with hoses rotting, boost creep, etc.

Didn't think of that for tire wear. But If I went manual paddle switches it wouldn't even be for a full year. It would only be if I could afford to get the air set up before SoWo so I could have air for hard parking at the hotel lol.

i'd make sure to upgrade to electronic digital good ness shortly there after.

All might be moot if I just decide to get a 'cheap' set of coils this year to get low, and then next year upgrade to air that way if this R32 pulls through I'm not struggleing to figure out priorities and breaking my bank.
