Ohlins.
People throw lots of money getting power when suspension will transform the car in the corners allowing you to use some of that power you already have.

Those are some gigantor cams, total mismatch if you're on stock turbo. I'd probably change them out for something smaller if you're not going for 500+ whp (you'll want a built motor for that). Studs, as mentioned. Bigger turbo, forged bottom end, Ohlins, all good choices.

only reason I got the cams was Bc I got them for a super good deal for 200 bucks, also I do plan to go over 500wheel, was thinking turbo upgrade but don't really want to mess with that mhi housings that fp uses it would mess my setup totally

I would honestly go with smaller cams, they would make your car feel faster, and it might actually be faster overall. I would consider 280s to be a net negative on your setup, actually - you could be giving up 30whp in the midrange, without the top end benefit. Even stock cams may be a better match.

only way you're goign to see benefit from those cams is with a bigger turbo. 272's would be better for stock turbo

Suspension to suit the car's use, then a turbo upgrade.

You want 600+ whp now? The cams would be a good match with the turbo, but they don't align with your initial goals.

If I were you I would just keep the kelfords and get a 35r

I always wanted big power so that's the route I'd go.

+1 on a short throw shifter. It was one of the first mods i did to my evo back in 2005, for me its been a mandatory mod for all the stick cars i have owned.
