Yeah the only non-A/F tuning that would need to be done or that I would ask for is the 2* timing advance which almost everyone and their mother gets. I’m not exactly sure what it does, to be honest, but everyone gets it on these motors so…:lol
I guess you must have unlimited resources. I don’t :'(. Trust me, I can afford to do stuff to the car in general…but I’m trying to enjoy my car (do stuff to it) while being at least somewhat fiscally responsible while doing so. Spending $3k on a VIP bag system or coilover setup (I think the JIC VIP FLT’s, for example, are like $2900)…is just not in the cards. Or $5k on wheels alone. I spent $2200 on my wheels+tire+TPMS combo at tirerack and I’m super happy with the look, the ride, etc. I think I made a great decision on that combo and saved myself a boat load of money at the same time (as opposed to buying BBS, HRE, Vossen, etc.).
If I was making 6 figures, trust me, this car would see nothing but the best and/or custom. And yes, if I was making that much money…I do think I’d still buy this car. Or a Lexus LS460L (the best luxury car on the planet IMO).
That’s why I base my product choices on the reviews of tens, or hundreds, of user reviews. I have not heard anything bad about Megan or BC for this platform. I don’t just look at the price of a product and say, okay, well…that’s cheap so it must suck. I read what people say about it.
Kind of like Starbucks vs Dunkin Donuts (to go off on a tangent). Both good coffee (as far as I can tell), but one is like double the price (starbucks).
Hell, I ran an ebay priced full exhaust on my Maxima and other than noise level it lasted and I had no problems with it for years.
