Well so far I am already trying 2 order or have installed the following:

35% Tint
Spool Springs
Injen Intake (g0g0g0 GB!)
Boost Controller
Turbo Timer
3 Gauges: Air/Fuel, Oil pressure, and Boost
2.5" Ceramic Downpipe

And here is what I want to do IN THE FUTURE, and I would appreciate feedback/opinions on:

J-SPEC 2.0 FS-ZE intake camshaft (heard this is a good mod)
MAZDASPEED Exhaust camshaft (or do we already have this installed?)
UNORTHODOX RACING Underdrive Crank Pulley (should I wait for a complete set of pulleys?)
2.5" Stainless Exhaust /w High Flow cat (could I keep my mazdaspeed muffler? Do I need a CAT?)
J-SPEC 2.0 FS-ZE intake manifold
Replace plastic turbo piping with aluminum (where can I get this done?)

Things that I will dream about doing:

Spool Stage 4 Turbo
Full carbon fiber lip/hood/enginecover/eyelids/EngineStruttowerBrace

i donno if it applies to the underdrive, but if you do pullys, you can't run a sound system. the alternator won't turn right.

i have been thinking about a FMIC but I dont think our cars really need it... Small turbo should have a small intercooler? I dont know mby it should but I think im going to save that for stage 4 =\

Technically, small turbo, higher boost needs a larger FMIC. The small turbo works really hard to boost that much, it heats up the charge quite a bit. You could up to a bigger turbo...

Then will you be interested in running the dyno down here like I suggested a few months ago?

the piping you would have to do custom. i was on ebay and typed in FMIC and got some interesting hits. there is an FMIC for like $250 BIN. looks pretty good. not too big not too small. kinda perfect for our cars/turbos.

why would you want an FSZE intake manifold - won't that manifold be incompatible with all the turbo goodies?
