Ok, so reading this I have a question now.
Scenario. If i was going to update my car to the 16g turbo and ran 10-12psi on that, how much horsepower would I have? You said it flowed more efficiently, which i assume means more power. but i could be wrong, seeing i'm replying to this at 3am. If i was going to run 10-12psi on the 16g w/o new injectors and SAFC thingy, would it be ok for a long time? If i was to put money into a new turbo, wouldn't be eating anything except the dollar menu for a long time.
If i was going to upgrade turbo's would i need to get a FMIC? I mean I want one at some point, and will def buy one, but would I need one right away, or will my SMIC work until the FMIC comes into play?
This is what I've been looking at:

Ok if you want to put a 16g on your car you would need at least a fuel pump i believe. There are people that run the kit w/out injectors but it is definetly not advisible. I don't think that you could effectivly run 12psi on a 16g.

The side mount will be ok...But id say just get the injectors too. you can buy stock evo injectors for cheap and they are 550s which are a great upgrade for the 16G. with those and a pump with the SAFC you could run at 12-21 PSI all you want and tune the car when you need to and you should be making 300WHP on 20ish PSI

Oh sweet! Hmm So fuel pump, Evo injectors, SAFC, and Turbo. How much are we looking at here? What fuel pump should I be looking for?

Walbro 190 is about $80
EVO injectors can get for $200
SAFCII between $150-$310
16G and install kit $600ish (Im am tossing out a number not sure)
dont forget you need a boost gauge, maybe and EGT, and\or a wideband o2
if you dont have one you need a MBC at least too

aww so ya, um, that's not gonna happen any time soon. hahaha.
i assumed that much. So i guess i'll just stick with the T25 for a while. get a MBC and push 14-15psi. think that's too much?
i know i'll need the guage too.

with a gauge and a MBC the stock turbo and fuel of you car can run at 15PSI with no problem at all

how much hp do you think that may give me? w/ exhaust, intake, mbc set at 15psi.

not much, but TheEngineers TSi AWD stayed dead even with my EVO from 50-90MPH race when I was stock except an intake filter
My EVO stock runs 1/4 in 14.0 with a launch so your car would be faster from a roll then mine was at that time but from a stop you would be looking at 14.4 for a 1\4 mile time unless you drive really good

Your prolly looking at 220 to the wheels if your pushing 15 psi on your stock t25...
If your pushing 20 psi on that 16g it would be a smart thing to put a fmic on there...
