Another Newb, my first G, and lovin it!

Whats up everyone!DOMO Well long story short 3 weeks ago i was traveling upo a local road....on my way to a date.....fml.... and a 17yr old texting veered into my lane and hit me head on i was going about 50mph, swerved at the last minute. If any of you have seen scary movie, the dude with "my strong hand" thats what my hand looked like, due to i was beeping the horn while the airbags went off, didnt realize it until after i came to. Anyway the VW CC was totalled. Picked up a 2012 G37x with 10k miles on it...i know not sure how, aparently it was some 80yr old womens lease and she never drove it, im happy to take it off her hands. anyway, i had a Evo8 that had 500+ hp in it when i was in college, since i had an A4, and then the CC which were stock. The G wants to move its fantastic, and i want to do some mods that wont make is super loud and obnoxious, nothing crazy just added a little power and a little more sound. Also any suggestions for suspension and wheels and tires also? Thanks guys, i know some of you will ask budget wise, at the moment just looking for some suggestions. Cheers!

Welcome to the site, glad you survived that accident and you found us too!
As far as mods, check the top two "sticky" threads in the newbie folder and the performance sub-folders. It'll take some homework but it's time well spent.
