    125K with unknown maint. history, I'd do the LIM gaskets/coolant elbows, change the plugs/wires and change the oil in the S/C. Then I'd do a trans. pan drop/filter change/transgo kit/refill as well to keep the built of glass trans happy for as long as possible.

    X2

    Engine oil and filter change
    Trans oil, flush, and filter change
    Flush and refill coolant
    Change air and fuel filters
    Drain and refill power steering, brake, and supercharger fluids
    Spark plugs and wires

    Take care of the preventative maintenance then move on to the fun stuff.
    04 GP GT- top swap, VS cam, 2.8 pulley, E85, headers, 60 injectors, TEP 3:29 trans, Racelogic Traction Control, ZZP dyno tuned.
