k first dealer = devil

get a good indy shop plenty on the board that can help u BBI, GMG, RSS/Stutguart performance all in CA

Second if you going to upgrade the turbo the Cheapest upgrade which is to modify your stock k16's to 16g compressor housings.

now if you want to go bigger then that and spend inthe 5k realm for turbo upgrades tial has a few options, AMS has the billet k16's and many other choices.

Plenty of good tuning shops in So Cal. I would take it to one of them that has been mentioned. If you need a reference in the Ventura area, I can help but I don't know what part of So Cal you are in. BTW, great looking car

I'm in Santa Clarita, so Ventura isn't that much of a stretch, or San Fernando valley. Anyone know of anything here in Santa Clarita (i.e. Valencia, Canyon Country, Newhall, Castaic)?

I like the idea of bigger turbos, but then I'm looking at Dv's unless I have them already... FPR, Injectors, Re-tune, Intercoolers?

Am I missing anything? I would like to stay in the $7-8K range all in. Is that possible to make 600+ for that kind of $$?

i saw this for sale a little while ago on craigslist - nice car, you got a car with some nice mods.

Hope you didnt pay way too much i remember the asking price being quite high.

Congrats

I think I gor a good deal on the car, considering the money that has been put into it. It's suuuuuuper clean with only 39K. I think book was just over 60K, and I paid way less. So, yeah, I think I bought it right.
