New to me 06 MR

I recently purchased an apex silver 06 MR. Car has 90k on the clock. Only mods are an invidia cat back and a gfb bov. Car has a tune and made 282/270. I'll be doing a timing belt pretty soon due to not knowing when it was done last. Is there anything I should look out for on this car with these miles?

I would suggest to do the fluids. Tranny fluid change, transaxle, rear diff, and oil change. Check the serpinetine belt as well.

Got some diaqueen on order. I'll do the belt at the same time as the timing belt and water pump. What plugs would everyone here recommend while on stock turbo? Thought about going one heat range cooler but wanted to ask first.

OEM plugs for a 9 on every size turbo.

Thanks for the info. I'm also about to order motor mounts and bushings to tighten everything up.
