  1. First, Happy New Year! I bought this 'beaut just over 2 years ago... and am slowly making it "my own." I'm one of those guys that enjoys his cars to stand out by means of simple altercation causing drastic effects. I don't have the "CHROME EVERYTHING" mentality, so the wheel choice was a risk. I initially worried that they were too big and the stance would give that "eh" feeling, but I couldn't pass up the deal and I ended up really liking them... for now. The only modifications/additions I've done thus far include: modest window tint, 20" wheels (not everyone's taste, but to each their own!), and a mild grille paint job - painted the grey plastic black while leaving all the chrome exposed (no pics yet). My goal is to have an MKZ that not only satisfies my aesthetic taste, but one that also has a nice little bite with it's bark. I have a few random questions to ask - I may even find the answers in here after I post this, so don't get mad that I inquired in hopes of the fast, direct answers. I will edit/comment accordingly 1. What are some easy and effective horsepower gains typical to the MKZ? I've found Fusion aftermarket parts, but I always doubt the compatibility. 2. Any experience with the Magnaflow exhaust? I can't seem to find any comments regarding the resultant interior noise. I want the sleeper feel - modest yet nasty when appropriate. 3. Any suspension upgrade tips to add agility while maintaining a comfortable ride? Lastly... 4. Has anyone had issues with their automatic starter? If I use it in colder conditions (below freezing), the ignition will act up - sometimes just won't start entirely, sometimes not responding to the key in the ignition, check engine light/battery light come on... I'm not 100% certain that this is caused by the automatic starter, but I only experience the problems after I use it (1 out of 5 times).
