    well.. the basic bolt ons will require some way to keep the car from over boosting..., you CAN port the wastegate, but i wouldnt do it.. its better to keep boost controlled.. and accurately targeted as for the VF ihi turbos are really sensitive past their efficiency levels. an exhaust will probably add some kick to the car, and it will spool slightly quicker, but add a downpipe (even catted ones) and you will get boost creep like crazy.. ecu picks it up, and sets a early fuel cut and kills throttle temporarily, bad for your car.. and very annoying. you might have to spend about 2-3,000 on the car, and you'd be as fast as i am. if you're willing to spend that much go for it, if not.. keep it stock

    Ecutek or CObb Reflash (18-19 Psi, with lower wastegate duty cycle maps to prevent over boost)
    Intake/Downpipe (catless) /exhaust and you have yoruself a healthy 300awhp 300awtq (in that area) STi
