Thanks aHero4Eternity for the info i just didn't know what FI meant and everyone kept saying go FI go FI. i'm definitely not dropping 10G's on soemthign that'll brobably void my warranty to i'll have to compromise alot on extreme performance but as for now i'll take things one step i mean Mod at a time.

My friend has a stock STi who refuses to race me on a freeway and im not even FI.. and hes a very good driver. The STi gets a lot of its speed from its short gearing but that and the fact its AWD make it useless for freeway or high speed racing. He'll pull about two car lengths on me until 80 then it cuts to a car length and then after 90mph i start pulling fast on him... about 120 im up a car length or more... thats freeway racing tho i dont know how often you have a chance to do something like that. However for a good set you can look into this
Kinetix V+ Upper Plenum
Cold Air Intake
UR Light Weight Pullies
Cat-Back Exhaust
Kinetix Test Pipes, or HFC (High Flow Cats)
After-Market Headers
MREV2 Lower Plenum
HKS Twin Power Ignition System
Iridium Spark Plugs
Light Weight Fly Wheel
and to make everything work good together go with a ecu remap from a company called technosqaure... this is the set up im aiming for and with it you can be looking at putting down some high whp numbers, maybe even as high as 280whp with the right tunning.. if you want to go all out on an N/A G you can get it up a little past 300whp on a 6mt but you need to start doing some internal work such as a port and polish... however these mods will set you back a couple thousand but your G will be really mean and could take more G's out there as long as their not FI but you could definately take out an STI even from a dig.

lol
but itll cost you around 5500+ plus about 1500+ to install
best part about vortech s/c is you can keep the oem hood so youll be a sleeper
but since im not f/i myself im no expert or anything lol might want to check on the f/i forums
you can learn a lot there
good luck man

This is the #1 mistake of a lot of people. If you're going to Mod your car you have to know what you want at the end. If you start buying those bolt-on $%#@& you'll end up spending the same amount of money and yet don't have the power to show. If you want to be able to hang with the M3's, Evo, STI then FI is the only way to go and just save your money, else just be happy you have a nice looking car and just stop dreaming of being able to hang with them.
10G is only if you want a Twin Turbo. You can install a Stillen/Vortech/Single Turbo and be around $6-7G. If you're afraid to put a turbo coz it will void your warranty then do you thing buying those bolt-on will not void your warranty?

"yeah yeah" on his coupe. Hes got like 100 more horsepower now." I laughed, alot and then just replied..no, you're wrong, really wrong. and walked away. lol
