Go for a VF34 or 35 turbo, 550cc injectors, walbro 255 fuel pump and a remap. This will give you a good power gain with out going O.T.T and killing clutches and gear boxes.

I would think about upgrading to a v5/6 sti......a more rewarding car to begin with and a better base to build on in the future.

Im after a bit more power, without getting too silly and adding to much stress to the engine gearbox etc.

What mods should i purchase/carry out next?
Obviously it will need to be remapped to suit the mods as well, but i hear its cheaper if you already have the licence?
Id be looking at the chassis and the brakes! Nothing will give a car more point-to-point speed.

It all helps

Having said that, if things go to plan I intend my next car to be 360bhp+, but still with killer handling

Good; Id always upgrade the chassis first and the brakes second (which is the correct way around, if you think it through).
