    Welcome to the site! Sounds like you found a great low mile ride.

    You could certainly bleed the brake system to circulate fresh fluid throughout, with a K&N I would clean the MAF with CRC Spray MAF cleaner and ensure that the filter is not "over oiled", I would recommend ditching the Hypertech tune in favor of a Frost mail order tune or a dyno tune if you have access, you can pull the sims after the tune as your error reporting can be reset so the SES light stays off, and I would carefully inspect the factory PCV hose for cracks (especially at the back corners of the engine and up by the intake). I have a Hypertech as well that came with out car. I have it mounted to my cup holder and use it to monitor live engine data.
