Hmmm lets see here. Buying a Random Technologies Down Pipe, Buying a K&N FIPK kit, and Buying a Summit Racing SLP Press on pulley.
Yeah I'll say it! I was a NUB!

Buying headers instead of going directly to turbo. That will be resolved shortly though...

first two mods were K&N CAI and custom magnaflow cat back..550 +300 = fail

the jp doubler roller is a two piece crank gear, one for the timing chain, one for the oil pump. it is not a single piece like the stock crank gear. this was the downfall of my L36 block.

Buying a cheap intake off of ebay and trying to mod a N/A

I pretty much listened to everything blue and bio said from the start so I didn't **** anything up, probably the dumbest thing I did to it was trying to paint the rust spot under the gas tank myself with sandpaper and bondo.

didnt really wake any mod no no's that i know of
My first mod was ubend delete along with res delete and magnaflows the res delete may have been noob sauce but it doesnt sound bad
And i should have done a brake swap just havent done it yet and when i was ready to buy the brake kit TDC pulled his disapearing act
Plus I still need headers But I have zero knock so no real worrys
