(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score I have a very conservative stage 1 map on....91 oct, Stage 1 ----> I don't have jack bolted onto my car at this point nor the HPFP internals. I'm going to drive around a bit like I have read on here and then MAF Cal the fairly stock car (don't judge....I'm extremely happy....life and hobbies change when you have a little baby on the way). I'm smiling ear to ear. RMM really helps make car feel solid too. I squeezed in the AP when my wife wasn't looking. She has been buying the baby stuff like crazy so it was time I got something for my car! It has been way too long and wow did I pick the right part to buy. Sorry I have to tell someone who cares...my wife will only see my lips moving and not listen when it comes to the MS3

| Not Ranked : 0 score The MS3 wins again. Most guys have to give up their sporty car due to size constraints and impracticality when the baby is on the way - and you're having more fun than ever. Now save a few bucks for an intake and test pipe. Once you get tuned, you'll need a baby wipe to get the shit eating grin off your face.

| Not Ranked : 0 score this. the intake and TIP should have been #1 but your on the right path. that and do a muffler delete. you get a superior sound out the back to go with the new intake and recirc noises along with the new found power.

| Not Ranked : 0 score Have a feeling I'm going to be in the same boat as you. New, bone stock 2013 MS3, but just picked up an AP in the For Sale section and am awaiting it's arrival. Since you're all stock, any surprises with the map you're using? Change in fuel mileage (aside from having your foot in it all the time)? How is the car behaving differently? And most importantly, THANKS for your service. Sent from my SPH-P500 using Tapatalk 4
