No trifecta changes some stuff in your ecu so you can get more hp out of your bolt ons

i wouldnt get a tune untill you have almost everybolt on you can do or if you got the 2.4 TB, then you will need it for sure.

sounds great but a word of advise...don't use the silverstars. they burn out more than I change my underwear (once a week)

i would def recomed the silverstars 1 winters and half a summer nd still going strong. never had a problem so far. just dont touch the actual bulb with your hand and you should be set

ive heard MANY complaints about the silverstars...never ever ever touch the bulb but a brand i would definitely recommend is Nokya...they last a long time, provide great light and have a wide selection. the best part is that they are very affordable!

hahaha i've used silverstars for years.

the silverstar ultras have gone through plenty of development over the years...i drive with mine on a great majority of each day.....3 months, still burning bright. and this is coming from a guy that puts almost 30,000 miles on a car each year. factor that into your silverstar hating....

as for the tune.....ignore what you've heard. even on my STOCK ride i noticed a difference. i only go 4hp out of it but the car is all around noticeably different....and in a good way. overall you'd be happy. I like having the tune ahead of time, because I'll actually get to see how each bolt on actually compliments the setup.

yeah^^^^ many ppl do that. but when your fully bolted you can have it all tuned correctly. instead of having to get tuned to get all you can out of every bolt on. and tunes arent that cheap.

theres always going to be exceptions to norms but I'm just telling you from my own experience and dozens of people i know that have bought them. Talk to any real customization shop and they will tell you the same. It's not a bulb of choice by many people. My nokya's were cheaper, brighter and looked better and I have had them for over 2 years without an issue. Nokya's are made in the same factory as Hella lights are but theres just a different name on them. Try the silverstars but be prepared if they burn out quickly like most do. Research it if you don't believe me.
