Basically what everyone here is gonna tell you....

What type of power you want?

How much money you lookng to spend?

It really depends if you are waiting for a turbo setup like alot of us. We currently have I thiink two kits available but only one has tuning. Hope this helps and good luck with the car. Oh and welcome to the site.

yeah those are somethings to be answered. the other question is, if it still has a warranty, do you want to keep the car under warranty ?

The warranty issue only come into effect if a part you install causes a problem with something else down the road. For example if you install a nitrous system and then blow up your engine by using it the engine is not going to be covered under warranty because the nitrous caused the engine to blow. Also it really depends on how much your dealership actually enforces it. Mine for example really don't car what i do as long as i keep them informed. Its all in who you know and who you have to deal with.
