haha SEARCH if anybody hasnt already said it.....Start with reliability mods first.....Koyo Radiator, Fuel pump (walboro), rewire the fuel pump to see 12v all the time, and Port the wastegate....also get an aftermarket boost gauge cause the stock one sucks ***......start with that and then come back and see us

Search for : exhaust, intake, wastegate, boost, fuel upgrades, fuel controllers, rtek, safc, etc...

Turbos have a ton of horsepower potential if you read up on what to do and how to do it safely. Easiest one is a new cat-back system. Boost increases require fuel pump/fuel injectors/fuel controller.
