So far on mine, I've installed the TME/IPD exhaust and a Defi boost gauge, adjusted the wastegate, changed oil three or so times, and done some various little stuff (spark plugs, etc).

Soon I plan on changing the tranny fluid and bleeding the brakes. Fuel filter, too. Wouldn't hesitate to change pads and rotors on it. When it does need a clutch, I'll probably tackle that (with a friend) as well.

I did buy the UK Haynes manual through IPD, and have been able to find just about all the info I need between that and the web.
