-still love this car: jack of all trades, master of none
-despite taking it to numerous autoX, I still cannot really push this thing to its full potential. AWD requires manhandling a car to be fast and I prefer driving with more finesse. However, I just dumped the stock tires last week and upgraded to some BFG Rivals, so that could also help too.
-added a 24mm adjustable rear sway bar, along with beefier endlinks and reinforcement pieces for the rear sway bar D-bracket mounts (Whiteline KBR15)
-had a custom mandrel-bent exhaust made for it - well worth the money:

It's not loud unless I'm WOT, and maintains that wonderful boxer burble. Highway is still extremely pleasant, but I know it's a high-quality peice as well. Great purchase.
-had NASA's mobile dyno check it out last year; putting down 240 AWHP with nothing more than an exhaust and a tune
