I would put my money in cooling upgrades for all the turbo intercoolers first.

I got one installed not too long ago. Its been really cool out and havnt had a chane to really push the car but it definitely performs the same, if not better than the OEM unit. I went with the Mishi because its very solid, like an armor plated oil cooler. So with the Mishi and the IND skid plate, I have no fear of the road claiming my oil cooler.

One thing though, bring some OEM O rings because the ones Mishi provided instantly failed.

The Mishi hides up under the skid plate I got from IND. I had the steel mesh added for extra protection, the mesh does not seem to reduce cooling.
