Congrats on the new ride, Isaac!!
But I am a little confused. What is all that in your sig if you have a '10 MS3 and nothing is available for it yet?
You'll be hard pressed to install a 4-2-1- header on a turbo car, among some of the other mods listed.

You may want to replace your picture. Just click "edit" to add it back in.
It "got lost(?)" when I merged the posts together.
I can't remember THAT happening before.
Sorry 'bout that, Isaac.

if you know what you are doing u can make the reg 3 faster or just as fast as a spd3 for cheap, and pretty reliable just w/o a warranty

check this link, ive priced it out to be just under 5k and with a decent tune should make around 290whp for the 2.0 and 300 for the 2.3, and as for reliability it all depends how well its put together and as along as its not in a auto, and heres the other thing, even if some1 had made the SAME exact whp and tq as a stock spd3 with the same weight, the turboed 3 would win, why? because the spd3 closes its throttle plate after 6500rpm and numbers drop heavy while the 3 even if it had the same power curve does not close its throttle plate and the numbers dont drop as much and as fast, so its able to rev out higher and if the turboed 3 is using a 5spd trans ite really gonna walk by a spd3. Trust me ive done ALOT of research and lets just say what i know would really **** alot of spd3 and spd6 owners off
