Hi and welcome. My advice is, before you start modifying, get used to the car first. Even in standard form its a lot for most people.

 

Secondly, check the newbies section out, it gives great advice on the club.

 

Do a search for BPU, that will give you the gist for basic upgrades etc

1st Mod - A damn good service, all fluids, filters etc etc - make sure the car is running 100% to get the most out of mods...

 

Yep, that and also have a garage do a leakdown test on all cylinders. If they hover below 80% you may want to keep the 'mods' low

 

Also make sure that all suspension linkages and bushes are OK. The do perish and ruin the handling.
