Thanks!

I'm hearing interesting noise on de-catting the stock header for some gains... it is UEL, so might be worth looking into.

Video: Gruppe-S UEL Header & Drift Office EcuTek Tune

I'm 5 days on my Drift Office tune, and loving it! Top end gains are great, but man I can't say enough about removing the torque dip and just having better all around drive-ability. It's a different...

mod car or new girl....

My wife is 4'11 and doesn't complain... in fact it's probably best she doesn't see what's going on when I drive lol.

Ultimately, we can't help you decide without seeing pics of her :)

Grab a '13 now, or wait for a '14?

I'm told all current '13 models have different injectors, and upgraded ECU settings/capabilities to counter the issues in the first few months of release.
