Default need more power

recently bought a 99 turbo 2000 uk which has a decat straight through exhaust and remapped to 270 the thing is it aint as quick as i'd like thinking of going for a bigger turbo but don't want alot of lag so any help would be appreciated wanting around 350bhp with plenty of torque cheers

I just got ported and wrapped headers and up pipe for mine, made a big difference to spool up time. Very worth while. Maybe a vf35 turbo?

VF34/35 turbo, 550cc injectors, FMIC or STi TMIC, and remap.

Oh and save some dosh for a gearbox, 6spd conversion is best, as your standard one wont last long
