450 to spend what do i buy??

Hey guys just like the title says i have around 450 to spend on more perfomance parts. My mods are in my sig that i have now. I was thinking on a hallman pro rx boost controller and maybe a maxford manifold. How does that sound or is there anything else power wise to money that would help out, IM just on stock turbo. Any suggestions would be helpful thanks alot

Matt

LICP, AMS has a great one if you go with the Hallman go for the Incabin pro Evolution it's so much nicer not having to get out of the car to open the hood to change the knob.
B&M short shifter, or if you into the handling of your Evo I would say the best part I have put on my Evo was the Cusco rear sway bar 3-way adjustable.

AMS LICP (150-200), o2 housing(50-80), HKS EVC 4 boost controller(175-225 on eBay). That boost controller holds my boost solid, even Al complimented it. Great for driving around daily at 1 bar, and even better for pushing a button to boost an additional .5 bar.

Posts #2 & #3 actually give you a lot of options for your money. I'd go with one of those if it were me.

Save it up until you have more to spend. If you must I would buy a meth injection kit snow is good

port your own manifold,get meth injection....logically that would be the next step while keeping it safe

Blue Evo 8 on here did a test, he had meth injection and all supporting mods on his car, got it tuned.

Then he got the buschur ported/coated exhaust mani, ported/coated hotisde, and then the ebay coated 02, and he picked up no power. I'd scrath all those and just buy an SMC alky kit.
