Next Upgrade?

Need sugestions on the next mod for my FD or a list of mods to follow (IC, then ECU upgrade then CB, etc... and on or the other way around). Eventually would want 340 hp +

The few mods I have performed to my car to date are as follows:
Fluidyne radiator, Pettit AST, Efini Y pipe, Silicon couplers and hoses to stock IC, HKS downpipe, Viton Hoses, complete water pump replacement, 51 R Battery, boost gauge, water temp gauge and new clutch and pressure plate. 52k on engine and running strong.

Figure in a home built intake system and keeping the seq. turbos. You got to love them the twins when they are WORKING.

Thanks for the help.

1) Change the fuel filter, plugs, plug wires, all coolant/heater hoses. Diff and Tranny oil.
2) Cat-Back.
3) MBC (keep boost at 12psi)
4) Cat-back
5) Standalone ECU
6) Intake
7) Intercooler
8) High-flow cat
9) Boost to 14psi, re-tune.

Thanks... done all items you listed on line 1.... most memorable for lack of better words was the fuel filter replacement. What a pain in the ***.

MBC? Manual boost controller right?

MBC will be required with a Cat back since I already have a down pipe.... right.?

A ball-spring controller is easy, reliable, and very adjustable. So you'll be able to dial in your boost no matter what mods you might have - 10psi rule.

From what I understand, every car is a bit different, but I can get a spike on my car, especially on cooler days. And other than a K & N, I haven't opened up my intake, and no efini 'Y' pipe. A BC is on my list of things to install this winter while the car's up.
