Hah thank you all. The mods are pretty simple

K&N filter/No airbox cover
stock 14b
Apexi downpipe
Certified/Mofugas 2.5" catback, Magnaflow stealth muffler w/ 2.5" outlet tip
Hallman mbc (never above 15psi)
Walbro 255lph pump

There is some smoke in the exhaust but it shouldnt be too hard to fix it up.

and John dont worry shes my new baby

the little bit of smoke is probably from old valve seals, no biggie...or could be an old turbo, once again..no biggie...congrats on picking up the car, and happy modding/driving

Yeah, it's great saying "just an excuse to upgrade" until you're as broke as your car and you have to watch it sit in your driveway until you can afford to "upgrade" whatever is busted...

smurfman- old valve seals... sorry to go OT, but if one were to leave their car sitting basically undriven for a period of several weeks, over time would just sitting there exacerbate, say, old valve seals that caused a little bit of smoke, and make a lot of smoke? would it go away once you drove it for a while, hypothetically?
