And get rid of that HKS down pipe. Get a full 3" all the way through. YOu may also want to look into what automotosports has to offer along with the ATP kits.

What kind of fuel (pump or race) will you be using? Do you go to the track? If so which kind of track, drag, road course, auto X, ect? Or is this a street driven car where quick spool up might be desired. Are you considering stand alone fuel management? You should answer these kinds of questions first, because they are important in figuring out the turbo that fits your needs.

Yeah, I'd have to say the AMS kit, RnR Kit, or the Buschur 580 kit.. If you want overkill, keep in mind that you'll have a bit of lag with any of these kits, but with the right gas and tuning, you should see the power gains your looking for.. Your definitely going to need other upgrades to increase air flow.. maybe some head work too..

Oh, and the other post that suggested engine management.. He's running a Motec standalone.. Likely he's already ditched the MAF sensor for Speed Density..
