If anything the PS should've been part of the 135is like the other Performamce parts. I'm confined, I'm going down the PS route once I hit 60k (which for me isn't very long, already at 20k and only got the car last Sept).
Yes, I agree with that as well, which is why most of us probably got the IS package as opposed to a stripper 135 and then slammed it and put a JB4 on it, etc. etc. I like to think we're a classier, more refined bunch perhaps.

They really should have put the PS on the car to begin with, but guess they're cheapos. It really suits the car perfectly and transformed the car. I think it's a no brainer, all benefit, no downside improvement like the PE or getting PSS tires. Nobody should question it or if it's an improvement or worth the money.

One other note after talking to the tech there about the suspension setup and the weak links in it. They said aside from the shocks and springs, that the front control arms really are a weak link and upgrading to the m3 ones is a major improvement and turns in a lot better, too in case anyone was interested or curious. 3002 tii, you already have those I believe, so you probably know full well about their improvement.
