Best Service Intervals for FBO Tuned N55
So I have a FBO N55 motor with a custom flash on it, and wanted to know when the best intervals are for fluids and filters. I know with the mods I have, it pushes the car harder meaning more frequent services, but wanted to know exactly when those would be. Things I'm interested in are:
Oil: Transmission Fluid: Differential Fluid: Transfer Case Fluid: Power Steering: Coolant: Brake Fluid: Fuel Filter: Spark Plugs: Anything else I'm forgetting?

Transmission Fluid: 65,000 miles Differential Fluid: 65,000 miles Transfer Case Fluid: 65,000 miles Power Steering: None, it's electric, swap the belt every 60,000 miles Coolant: 30,000 miles or once a year if you track alot Brake Fluid: Same as Coolant. Fuel Filter: 50,000 miles Spark Plugs: depending on what boost you're pushing, normally 25,000 miles if stock plugs, 30-35,000 miles for iridium. |

Transmission Fluid: Every 50,000 miles. Differential Fluid: Every 50,000 miles unless you have a clutch based LSD. In that case, every 25,000 if you track. Transfer Case Fluid: Power Steering: Belt - every 100,000. Coolant: Every 50,000 even under tracking conditions. Brake Fluid: Every 6 months with standard brake fluid. Every 12 months with Castrol SRF. Fuel Filter: Not necessary. Spark Plugs: Every 50,000 for stock powertrain. If you just DD your FBO N55, you're not pushing it harder than a stock N55 that is being tracked at HPDEs. If you decide to track a FBO N55, that's an entirely different ball game in terms of wear and tear. |

Full bolt ons - typically meaning:
Front Mount Intercooler Upgraded Intake Catless/High-Flow Downpipe Upgraded Chargepipe Could also include upgraded oil cooler, but typically not unless the car will be seeing the track pretty often
