Yes, look at my sig. Those mods all go in one package that I designed and that Buschur sells. With just the included base flash, it gets you around 300whp. Every car is different, so you may get more or less, but with a custom tune, you should definitely hit 300whp. Just get a BR TBE, JDM MR DV, Walbro 255, and then drive to Dynoflash in Stamford to get your custom tune.

Get an ebay turbo back, be about half the price of the buschur, its just a damn exhaust, thatd be around $400ish, then a tactrix cable, poney up a donation to evoscan and get it. Then Id get a good wideband setup, another $400ish, that leaves you around $400ish left, with taht, keep an eye out for a set of decent used cams.

Wouldnt waste the money on reflashing or on a "name brand" exhaust, get a cable and do it yourself, or if you dont have faith in your ability to learn how, at least get the cable and pay for a tuning subsciption service like ttp's or any of the others who do it.

It'll pay for a set of pads, rotors, fluids, and a few track days. Tires not included

Buy a nice set of tools and a manual (if you haven't already). They will pay for themself when you start modding/maintaining.

Just a thought..
