1. try getting an alignment maybe ?

2. new motor & turbos is always a good thing if you plan to do exhaust upgrades you will have to get a reprogrammed ecu from pettit, m2 or an apexi powerFC to give engine more fuel so you don't lean out

3. the pettit upgrades shouldn't degrade engine life as long as you don't try and run 17psi all day long. if keep boost modest 10-12psi your car should run all day long

4. i personally use castrol GTX 20w50. my FD has a new engine it will be running mobil 1 full synthetic after break in.

You're not going to use an oil metering pump, right?
