What do I need to upgrade my turbo

Ok I know i need bigger injectors and a new fuel pump but what do i need to get. I wanna get a intercooler made for my car at my local speed shop but will i need to get a standalone or can i reflash my ecu and get a piggyback??? or should i just wait and save parts and do it all in one big job.

the setup i wanna get is

A gt35r turbo
750 prim and 1600 sec injectors
a haltec e8
new wastegate
3'' exhaust
duel 255 fuel pumps
and a street port, maybe a full bridge

gonna be using it for autocross and the random track days and crusing

I think thats it cant really think at the moment

but my goal is to shoot for a soild 400 whp and maybe grow to 500 with a bigger turbo

That's standalone only territory. No piggybacks like an SAFC.

that turbo should make 500 and i autocross with 325ish whp and it gets scary sometimes so 500 is out of the question for that . 500 in a 7 is like a 700 hp 300zxtt been there scary as hell 130 mph in third gear instant loss of traction wid nitto 555r's 275-45-18 out back smoked gxr1000 and almost ran over a 750 sideways at 90 mph



hey your not too far from me i autocross in adel ga and cordele ga havent been to sav yet
