It's good to hear your takes on it all. At first, I did feel a like my car was a bit too weak for my class. But now after hearing you speak from experience I don't feel like I am at much of a mechanical disadvantage. Although I can see where some more low-end torque from a decent tune would have helped me.

From a performance perspective, Nate said the biggest single power change came from the reflash, not the up-pipe, Turbo back, etc.. Now could the reflash have done as much without the others first, probably not quite. On handling, start with the struts, and go from there, or not...
DS, or not DS, that is the question....
My first 3000 or so track miles were on the stock suspension on my A4. Yes, along the lines I did tires, brakes, and a reflash, but nothing forced me to be smooth more than that relatively soft suspension. You could skip John's stuff and learn a lot in NDS on 16s & stock suspension... Ask Debbie.
