After fbo and e85

What else has everyone done? After they've achieved Fbo. Or what would be some good upgrades to just keep working on any input greatly appreciated.! I have some cosmetics alrwady finished. Wheels, coils, good tires, Mtech all around. I guess I'm just trying to achieve a more "finished" state. And more along the lines of DD activity not to much track time available for me :/

Have you upgraded the LPFP to allow full E85? That will get you some power.

Other than that, it's all personal preference. Wheels, bumpers, LED angel eyes, black trim ... the list goes on.

For me, once my rear tires are gone I'm moving to some Apex wheels, then after that an M3-rep front bumper and M-sport rear bumper!

Intake pipe upgrade:
MM Performance intake pipe upgrade (can't post the link to N54 Tech as the site just puts ****** across the link). Just do a Google search.

Port injection (though of limited benefit on stock turbos):

I agree! They're the EC-7, front in 9x19 et35 and rear in 9.5x19 et33. I need to drive harder to wear out my tires so I can get these puppies sooner!

On the flip side, that means they may actually be worth something used right now

Was gonna suggest Stage 2 LPFP, as well! That's my next purchase. Essentially all the other main things have been mentioned except METH

Unless you've been throwin 'em in along the way, you could always concentrate on smaller components now, too: RB upgraded PCV, modified clutch delay valve, OCC, cowl delete/filters, CP w/new DVs or BOV (although if you're FBO you probably already have this), all new/colored vacuum tubing...
