A (not so lucky) new 3 MPS owner in Bris.

[MitchHemming]

Hey everyone

Picked up my new 3 MPS gen 1 last wednesday! It's awesome!

Never owned a turbo car before (N/A kinda guy), so everything is fairly new to me in terms of engine mods/how it drives etc

Put nearly 400km's on the car from wednesday morning to thursday night.

....and then heading to work 2 days later on friday morning some idiot in a van hit me on a roundabout

So my car is sitting in the garage, undriveable until Wednesday when it's off to get fixed (all under insurance)

Once I get it back, I'll start with some mods. First on the list is a Corksport SRI and a ECUTEK or Cobb AP retune (Not sure which yet)

Down the track I'll look at further mods for more power, but for the time being i just want to drive it and enjoy it!


Looking forward to meeting other MPS owners around SE QLD

Agreed Luke...I think we need a dedicated Mods Anonymous Thread . First step is admitting you have a problem hehe.

Yeah I tried to kick the habit a long time ago, can't be done.
