Eisenhaus which carried the fake Eisenmann exhaust was made in Korea.

Eisenmann is made in Germany.

Also, if you change the suspension, you can NOT use the EDC settings at all. The aftermarket CO's just disable it all together.
From aesthetic view, it will look 'better' with lower ride but it compromises performance.

I would take some time to enjoy the car, in it's stock layout, for alittle bit past break in before you go mod crazy. Get to know the default car's limits and quirks.

I don't get why people buy a car only to immediately make drastic changes to it.

I understand the small things.. front reflectors, kidney's, tint, bras, and some minor lighting changes to the halos and interior dome lights. But none of these are performance oriented, all aesthetic.

Either way, congrats on the new car. Its pretty awesome.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of restriction in the stock intake with the huge air box and three input sources. Maybe something to be gained from a filter change if it has the charcoal layer built in. So, not really sure what's to be gained on a new intake. Weight reduction?
