I don't daily drive it in winter, it's in the garage most of the time. But you got nothing to worry about I know people who have them on in winter and they never went through problems, and it's really easy to put it on and take it off. As for my exhaust it's just a muffler but I'm getting the pipes later on.

I've had MarkD do my software a few times.. knows his stuff and he can tune it to your liking since he has access to a dyno. He's re-doing mine to a Stage 3 this week. I have a Dinan CAI..yeah it;s over priced..I prev had a short Ram, then tried a GruppeM.. they are all about the same HP output.. I chose he Dinan for the sound and true "cold" air from bumper..

I had previously asked Mark D about his chip, so that's a possibility. $500 sounds quite reasonable. How much would a quality intake cost? Which one?

Maybe an intake and chip first. I would love to add an exhaust, but it sounds like exhaust systems for the 3 are really expensive... hey post up what you have for exhausts. My biggest criteria if I ever go for an exhaust - NO DRONE. Had an aftermarket exhaust for a previous car and my ears still ring to this day due to the drone.
