That said.. my shop said no, absolutely get aligned immediately and referred me to a very very good local alignment shop who does a ton of race car and high end car work. They also challenge the "settle in" thought, and I am glad I got the alignment done immediately. So I hear you there, but I dont believe that is accurate.

So regarding the Mosselman thermostat upgrade, the only real benefit is that it's aimed to keep the oil temperatures lower. So if that is the only benefit, why not just swap out the thermostat rather than spend $400 to replace the entire housing?
Something like the FTP lower oil temp thermostat fir $45. https://www.ftpmotorsport.com.tw/pro...l-cooler-valve Granted, it's not as pretty lol |

If tariff rates ever come back down, I will see if I can work out the group buy again. I love it honestly, even after all the trouble (and extra expense) to get it.

Well as to be expected upgrading power that much, my 6MT is... tired...
I will have a Spec 2+ (rated to 545) clutch and new flywheel installed tonight, plus pulling the CDV while there. Even if I upgrade my turbo, that clutch should hold any increase in power.

So much good news..
Clutch is now broken in with the Spec2+ installed and holy HELL it pulls hard now! Tires spin WAY too easy. Turbo inlet is here and waiting to be installed M Performance front and rear calipers coming tomorrow (off a wrecked M4) Stainless steel brake lines coming in tomorrow New rotors to replace the new rotors.. lol.. to fit the larger calipers. Depending on condition of the calipers, changes are I will have them stripped and powdercoated red. *grin*
