I'd do a ported and clipped big 16g turbo, 3 inch cat back exhaust, 3 inch downpipe, ACT 2100 pound clutch, ACT Streetlite flywheel and MOST IMPORTANT a decent boost controller

nice i was thinking about hte 16 g and it sounds like that would be something i would be into . i do have an issue though i installed a boost guage and after the install i was out testing my boost and then my check engine light popped on and stuck. now nothing feels wrong but i am not sure why that happend any ideas? also i routed it through a vaccume line that was close to the firewall is there a specific vaccume line i should use. ill try to get a pic up of where i put it.

i would start with changing your fuel filter, timming belt,spark plugs,plug wires go with msd's they are a good wire.then move to i/c pipes, bov,then start on your fuel system, pump, injectors,fpr, then a fuel control system, then turbo, front mount,clutch, well you know there is no end so ill stop there lol.

I'm just starting to get into mine and hopefully will more as summer rolls around and this semester's over. So it sounds like we're in about the same place or not too far away. I am very happy with the mods I have done so far, boost gauge and a MBC is next for me then possibly fuel depending on how far I go and how fast.
