The only next step for more power is a new turbo. Which will give you serious gains. Your probably running 270Hpp odd at the moment. A sti turbo, would probably be a good choice, something like a VF22- Onwards. Then you would need, injectors, fuel pump,remap,intercooler and have too look into things like better susp. clutch,brakes etc...Then you would push 300+

1st
Fuel Pump
Fuel Pressure Regulator
Headers

2nd
Injectors
FMIC
Remap

3rd
Bigger turbo
Remap

In that order

Job done

p.s. if you can afford to get the turbo to be done at the same time as the injectors & FMIC to save on another remap...bonus

Buy my IHI VF28 Turbo & 440cc Injectors for £350... good start.. Walbro fuel pump safe bet around the £80 mark.
