Okay working with your list lets see...... It would appear that you are going the Sporty route or you secretly want a Cayenne twin turbo. But I would have to concur with nickm on most of his replies.

1. You could be the first cuz most folks don't really want to mess with what is under the hood. I think Abt sportline is the only firm that was offering engine tuning for the V8 outside of a ECU reprogram.

2. I have no clue what you are refering to with that but the touareg is already beautifully lit up at night. Maybe you can change the color of some of the bulbs for the sake of changing something.

3. Sure a Votex or Caractere rear spoiler would be just fine to add to the rear of your car it will add to the sportiness, you know the look you are going for.

4. Paddle shifters are a nice addition if you really plan to do some canyon carving or if you use the tiptronic a whole lot. What the heck they would even give you something to brag about like "These paddles don't come on US spec T-reg I put these in"

5. Nick M is right the V8 tips couldn't look better all nestled up under the bumper like they are.

6. The only body kit that I have seen on a touareg and liked is the Caracter body kit which is nice and pretty widely available through a couple mail order firms.
** But I have yet to see the Hofele design Route GT package installed on a touareg. I only know the firm LLtek to carry this in the US. and it is basically a new front bumper skin that relocates the foglights but if you are going for a sporty look you can paint in the blacked out grill and get the mark V GTI Look. ***

7. Wheels are very important to the performance and appearance of a vehicle. 20's which are more practical and have a wide tire choice still don't look large enough on a T-reg that is not lowered but can pass on one with air suspension.

22's on the other hand fill out the wheel well alot better and are heavier than 20's.

Weight is usually a factor for me when choosing wheels especially for performance as larger wheels affect both acceleration and braking response just as much as they improve cornering.

In general (not working with your list)

You start with suspension and wheels and tires.

At the same time to try to make the vehicle more efficient by changing the oil, plugs, and air filter. "get her running at her best"

As far as visual enhancements go it is up to you to decide what you like and don't like.

You can tell by my signature when that I am biased with some of my answers.
