What would you change?

I'm bored at work so I figured I would get your opinions on what you would change or add to my setup. I'm on a extremely ported IX turbo and if I was to upgrade, the largest I'll go is a bbk full as spool and response is the #1 priority.

03 viii stock block and head
Stevo8 spec IX turbo
Stevo8 spec ported/coated exhaust mani
Stevo8 spec ported intake mani
Comp cams 272's(stock springs/retainers)
Blox cam gears
Milspec 65mm TB
ETS uicp
Ams licp
BR8ES plugs
Titek v1 o2 housing
Megan 3" down pipe
TP
Works 3" exhaust with muffler delete(so only a small resonator in the exhaust)
Forge wga
Perrin fmic
Ams licp
Walbro 255
RC1000's
Ams fuel rail
Tomei bov
Gm 3port

Sooo.. What would you change and why?

BBK Full or FP White get my vote. The White has really peaked my interest lately b/c its faster than stock spool (with IX MIVEC at least) +10% top-end increase in flow. The BBK Lite should be similar to the White.

Sounds like you have a nice setup though. How about some suspension work and/or a short-shifter?

Im on Ohlins coilovers with a shifter, two piece rotors, quaife diff etc. Car weighs 2980 with 1/2 tank. Most the misc bs has already been covered and now Im working on the power dept. I have zero interest in a white as I have heard nothing but bad about them, and to tell you the truth I have no interest in FP products anymore.

LOL can't say I blame you. The one time I attempted to do business with FP it was a horrible failure. BBK Lite/Full it is then!

New Tomei 20g is perfect for you too so dont over look that one. Actually seen one in the used market place never even used. Plus they've been known for over 450 hp/tq.
