I've compiled a list of the parts I am looking at and linked them down below. I am also looking into an aggressive exhaust setup (that pops and crackles, but may need a tune for that) that doesn’t have that bad of droning lol.

Possibly thinking of going straight pipe just to experience max loudness lol, paired with a catless downpipe I’m pretty sure I will spit flames and it will be ridiculously loud. I would appreciate some great exhaust set ups that are aggressive, thanks ahead of time!

Please let me know your thoughts and if I should consider any other mods.

N55 JB4 - plug and play

VRSF 3.5″ Ceramic Coated Catless Downpipe -

HKS Super SQV4 Universal Blow Off Valve (love the sound) -

VRSF Performance HD Intercooler Upgrade Kit 07-12 (Not sure if it will fit for 2013) -
Also should I get 5” or 7.5”

They are currently out of stock with the VRSF so maybe BMS?

BMS N55 Performance Intake -

I think that is pretty much good for me on internals unless I must have some other parts as preventative measures. Trying to achieve close to 380-400whp.

I appreciate any input you may have, once again thanks!

This is a solid list. You may want to consider reaching out to some sponsored vendors for a package deal The VRSF FMIC is back in stock too. I prefer the 7.5" Comp FMIC over the 5", especially in hotter climates.
