OEM+ What does it mean to you?

I recently saw a video on youtube called MOD smarter, not harder. It's about smart mods that make sense for a daily driver. I'm wondering, what is the best mods you've done to your car and how did they help?

Gutting the suspension and replace with Rallitek and Whiteline set up. Transformed our 16 OB to ride much better than when new. Made my 18 XT much more stout. And am finishing it up on the 14 Impreza tomorrow.

Never heard of OEM+. Maybe tell us more? Is it a company? Method for something?

My Legacies got sway bars. The rear really did the trick. The front was harder to get used to as the steering is much more sensitive now. More air on the intake. Tunes. Tires, tires, tires. Suspension can be improved also, but I'd steer away from coilovers on the street.

OEM+ is just making your ride better than the factory did without turning it into a racecar and making it miserable to drive. Think finely tuned daily driver. Mod Smarter

Interesting. Never heard of that.

I hadn't either until recently, but it makes sense. The video was anecdotal if
not informative.

After four minutes of nothing in that video i decided I am too old to waste any more time i have left. That said... I have been doing OEM+ for years...just never knew that label for it.
