I'm still at Stage 1 Cobb, the reason I am in no rush to bolt on DP's or FMIC is that this thing is seriously quick already without them. I can only imagine what FBO power must feel like over Stage 1 but right now, especially with the extra cold inlet temps, the car is a beast so I'm ploughing cash into tyres & suspension next before FMIC in the Summer months & upgrading to Stage 1+ tune. I'm not sure I'll even make DP's given the pain in the a$$ at dealer visits.

So I'd say stick a tune on for some instant thrills then just upgrade the rest as you have the cash.

I guess it depends on what you're really itching for...

Initially, the power wasn't enough. This was my order so far, got the car last month:
  1. Blackline LCI Tails + Rubber Floormats
  2. AA Signature Exhaust, AA DP, JB4 Stage 2
  3. ER Chargepipe

The power isn't enough yet, but it's manageable now. Here's a tentative schedule:
  1. Swapping JB4 for Cobb AP
  2. CF Front Lip
  3. BMS OCC
  4. CF Rear Diffuser
  5. Wheels + Tires + KW V2 Coilovers
  6. CF Trunk Lip + CF Kidney Grills
  7. FMIC (+Maybe BMS Intake)
