New to the rotary scene, need advice
I am thinking strongly about purchasing a 1988 turbo II, however, I would like to have a little more power. I know some of you guys on here know everything there is to know about these cars so I thought I would ask you first before I did anything. Here is what I want: 300-400 reliable horsepower. I would like to start with upgrading the exhaust and intake systems but I really don't know witch kits are the best, ect. Money is not really an object but I would like to keep it under 5 grand. Any advice would be great, thanks.

300-400 rwhp can be done.
Start with racing beat. Good products good company.
Furhter to get 300rwhp+ hp you are looking at a full stand alone, new turbo, full exhaust, upgraded fuel injectors, upgraded intercooler... I could go on.
Long story short it can be done if your budget does not include the cost of the vehicle. (you can occasionally find 300+rwhp FCs for sale around $5-$7k here though) But in order to do it reliably you have a LOT of reading to do. Start with the FAQ sticky and the Archives. Then if you have a question search first, cause if you dont you will be crucified here. If you cant find an answer after searching post up.
