Dick (but valid) answer: Driver mod; go learn to drive what you have.

Nice answer: Try some suspension mods, that way you'll be able to put the extra power down to the ground a little better.

I like this!

10.5 hotside, Lower IP, 02 Housing will all help power. Beyond that, you could get a tune for meth and/or race gas.

Suspension and brakes probably need addressed. Some springs or cheap version coilovers.

Possibly rims/tires if you wanna change the looks. But it's all personal preference.

It's the side of the turbo where the exhaust gases enter and exit. The other side is the intake side that routes to the intercooler. Technically one side is the compressor and one side is the turbine (hotside).

So i should not up grade the tubro just the 10.5 hot side and the 02. Would this not be a waste of money if i am going to upgrade to a biger turbo. I am trying for 450 whp. i am curently at 316whp. i am instailing injectors and fuel rail this weekend. I still have my stock cat too. Thanks for all the input so far

Just answering a question. If you're going to get a turbo kit, you'll get a whole new setup with a downpipe (assuming you get a quality kit).
