If you want more power with the mods you have, just get a Pettit/M2 ecu and run 12 psi. $400 and running 12 psi will get you a serious power increase, unlike some of the other rediculous suggestions in this thread.
12 psi on a chipped ecu is still pretty damn reliable.

Why get a chipped ECU when I have a Power FC?

$900
I am going to run more boost in the next little bit, just not as of yet. I just want to get everything I can to help power while I am at it.

1. Spare set of wheels & race tires.
2. Go to racing school (s) at VIR.
If you need to modify more stuff: water injection & tune for it, motor mounts , diff mounts, lightweight replacement seats & brackets (recaro SPG?), small aero mirrors, wider fenders & wheels & tires. Mazdaspeed vented hood.
Custom stuff: Hella 90mm custom-fabricated popup headlights (similar to Wael's old car), full sheetmetal (or CF if you can afford it) underbody tray (be sure to have this designed by someone who's good at aero stuff), relocate battery and fabricate better ducting for FMIC / radiator. Custom intake manifold(s), designed for high-rpm flow.

I swear, 75% of the people on this forum go LOOKING for ways to spend more money for little gain. I don't get it.

I am going to boost it within the next couple weeks. Right now I am just trying to get stuff for more horsepower. If you think I shouldn't get anything else, then why do they make these things and people make power from them?
