    I want to know what you guys consider the best of the best as far as parts go
    Consider these are your parameters, money is NO object, you want a safe but more powerful car, you want top quality parts for fit and finish...Basically you want to upgrade everything smaller and tune for power but not have to upgrade turbos and internals....FUN and RELIABLE

    1 and 2 for me would be invidia, they make probably one of the best exhaust on the market for the price.

    6 would be open ecu, the tunability and price cant be beat!

    This is all based on stock turbo bolt-on project.

    1.Exhaust/muffler -- either the Genome STi or a Prodrive oval tip
    2.Downpipe -- Cobb
    3.TMIC -- Process West
    4.FMIC -- not needed for this application
    5.Injectors -- depends on if they are still side feed or top feed -- either way, definitely not modded stockers
    6.Tune(openecu,cobb,utec,etc...) -- Hydra & a GOOD TUNER
    7.Injections?(meth,nitrous,water,alky...) -- meth or alky; I honestly don't know much about the injection stuff since I ran 85% alky fuel directly :biggrin:
    8.Headers -- Full Race
    9.brake pads -- for street applications, Hawk HPS
    10.brake lines -- Goodrige?
    11.Up-pipe -- Full Race
    12.gaskets -- stock
    13.Springs(for performance.not just looks,not coilovers) -- Prodrive
    14.tower bars F & R -- Whiteline
    15.Sway bars -- Whiteline
    16.skidplates -- Rally Armor
    17.Gauges -- Defi
    18.Fuel pump -- Walbro 255 is fine for this application

    1.) Buddy Club racing spec III. entire cat back wieghs like 10lbs or something like that. lightest exhuast I have heard of.
    2.) I have a Helix 3" and I love it, I have also heard Invidia makes a nice pipe
    3.) IceVex made a huge TMIC that had real nice welds. Otherwise whatever one Disco has would win.
    5.) All depends on the application. Pinks would probably be fine for stock turbo
    6.) Hydra. cant beat a standalone for tunability.
    8.) Those split pulse ones Mike has, but for sounds cant beat a true unequal length.
    9.) Hawk HPS work well
    11.) Zerosports anti-lag uppipe.
    12.) OEM
    13.) RS&SP coils. for springs I like STi Tarmac springs
    14.) STi (carbon front bar FTW!)
    15.) Cusco or Whiteline
    16.)Primitive Racin
    17.) Genome (defi) or Innovate wideband

    check out sound clips here. (GeNome sound clips there also)
