Well, I want between 320 and 350, or between about 250-270 at the wheels. I'm about half way there as I'll still need an upgraded turbo and fuel system but have freed up all the factory 'restrictions' that come with our cars - removed silencer w/ k&n filter, samco hoses, uppipe, turboback exhuast, and a dyno tuned Unichip (I've tried maps, this is the only way to go!). I've been thinking of that Ion upgraded turbo, a VF34, or the Cobb SR30 for my turbo upgrade, but I can't spend too much $$$ as I'm fairly limited there. Now, I'm actually considering waiting till we get more news on the new STi, I'm sure adding those beautiful new factory made headers and the new twin scroll turbo that fits up to them would be nice. I'm sure those will eventually be over here for our cars...
So what do I still need to complete my project of a reliable stoplight terror that loves a mountain road and gets me around in the snow?
Power wise I need: an upgraded turbo, fuel injectors/pump/rails, and that new APS TMIC whenever Cobb decides to offer it. BTW, the fuel and upgraded TMIC are protection and reliability mods
Suspension wise I need: to finally install that Anti-Lift Kit and those Z rates on 17's I have sitting in my garage, Tein lowering spings, front and rear strut bars, and some endlinks to go with the cusco swaybars
Brake wise I need: everything! The stockers are the weakest performance aspect of the car, and they really show with another 100 hp and an upgraded suspension.
So those are the goals I have with my car. What I just described could cost anything from 4-7k, so I can't afford to go much faster while maintaining some reliability. I also can't afford many appearence upgrades either since I just can't justify money spent on things that don't add to the performance, so I think I'll be limited to a front lip (hey, it increases downforce.
It increases downforce 
), the STi hood scoop, and the tint I've already got. Those are the goals for my car, I hope to have them all completed in 2 years or so. Until then, I'll be fine with my 230 whp, thank you very much
