I'm running around 290rwhp on stock TMIC.

STOCK FMIC is fine!
STOCK turbo is fine!
STOCK ECU is fine!
you need a the exhaust you already bought, TID mod, FCD, Walbro or Denso Fuel Pump, Rising Rate Fuel Pressure Regulator, and 15lbs of boost!
to get more power and be safer at the same time, you can rebuild your turbo to a hybrid, you can get a front mount IC, you can get 720 secondaries, and you can get a SAFC to control them.

to* tune
its not that hard to tune to drive, but you have to be careful, don't want to lean it out too much. Its best to justr fork over the money and tune it to a wideband on the dyno...more power that way and a lot safer.

they are multilingual. To install it, pull up the carpet and flooring on the passenger side, pull off the ecu cover, pull out the connectors, read directions, find your car in the SAFC booklet, splice their harness into your ecu harness according to the colors they give you. In the end its basically stripping and soldering about 20 wires(or so...). It could be a little scary if you are new to electrical, so I'd reccomend a friend to watch you and make sure you don't do something stupid.

assuming you are running the stock intake and s4 turbo, you are probably running 7-9 pounds of boost. you are safe right now, but fuel and controller should be your next power mod.

wow...you need to get a boost controller and port your wastegate. A tid is "turbo inlet duct" so basically the piping between your afm and turbo, the stock one is black and s-shaped, and very restrictive.

2a+ron on the forum here sells them pretty cheap, but it is a home-made style. some guy on here made some welded up ones that were a little more restrictive but had the bling factor. your looking at 20-120 dollars depending on quality. its really easy to install
