03 Where it breaks first
It is a detuned Type R engine. The Type R parts catalog is the sleeper's cheat code.
The 10AT holds surprising torque; the 6MT clutch does not. Budget accordingly for the manual.
04 The typical path
Stage 1 tune → intake → downpipe → intercooler → Stage 2 tune. Fueling before E85, driveline before sticky tires.
