CS Front Sway & Strut Bar & Crankshaft Pulley
What's better than to spend your tax money on car parts? =P Well I did it. I caved in and purchased the CS Front sway and front strut bar. OH! The lightweight crankshaft pulley also. It was Christmas in April for me this year. Well I will start off by saying. WOW! What a difference in response with all these parts installed. The pulley added that much needed push that the 2 lacked. Being almost 50% lighter than the stock, MOAR POWAHH! The torque just feels there when you need it now. The engine hesitation on the first through second gear change nearly disappeared which was great. This is going to be a great add for autocrossing. I really like it and would recommend everyone who owns a 2 to get it for a slight power increase. Install and quality was great also.

Corksport Short Ram Intake
Was very excited for this one, my first power upgrade! My boyfriend surprised me with this one. Again thanks to the guys at Corksport for a great product. It's Corksports Short Ram Intake, and it was a breeze to install.
Thoughts on it....basically I am extremely happy with the upgrade, the grunt it added to the engine makes me wicked giggly, and as far as power, its there you can notice it. I can be cruising to a red light and now when it turns green and I gas it, it actually goes now. The intake filled a big emptiness in the midrange power. Also, quick shift changes actually have some torque too instead of a huge hesitation.
There isn't a lot of parts out there for the 2 but Corksport is definitely working hard at it.
Looking forward to trying out more of Corksport's Upgrades.
