My goal is not to question whether you can post or not, it's meant to emphasize one thing and one thing only:

Own the car first before you spec out all your mods.

Things change, especially after driving the car for a few months. Going in, I was thinking that I'd need to mod the engine for more power, since that seems to be a "weak link" as mentioned by everyone else.

But frankly after driving the car for half a year, there's no need for power mods on my car (as far as my driving style and needs are concerned).

I'm mostly posting the question out of prior experience. As your well-jumping analogy states, the important question is asked before you make the jump... but also ask yourself, why are you in line in the first place?

If modifying the car constitutes this imaginary well-jumping line, you shouldn't be asking why in the first place, and vice versa.
