97 wrx v-limited just bought, upgrade advice
 
This car is totally standard bar exhaust system, induction kit and dump valve owned by old man hardly used 58k miles.

Previous turbos were glanza's and a fiat coupe turbo.

With the glanza's mods were added in this order:

boost controller
front mount
fuel pressure regulator
fuel cut defender
oil cooler

im not looking more power from the scooby its thirsty enough. Basically im looking better response from the engine. Im thinking f.p.r and f.m?

Dont need a front mount or fuel pressure regulator if not going for more power.

Not sure what you mean by a better response from the engine.

Harvey's up-pipe and RCM headers https://www.scoobynet.com/general-te...d-up-pipe.html, Sports decat, KnN panel filter and a remap (dependent on what ECU you have), job done. All help spool up and breathing, therefor response times. You will also gain a few ponies.:D

FMIC and FPR only if your going for bigger BHP, which you don't want. A couple of tips for ya, dump the IK for a OE airbox and a KnN panel and replace the DV with the OE item too.
