Questions again,Dont you sometimes asking more from your car???I have my GT-4(JDM) for 3 months now and i start looking for more BHP,more Speed better handling!!!I know this is natural,even if you have a Ferrari you will still asking for more(but not in 3 months),so anyone who cares about safety and speed let me know from where to start the upgrade of my GT-4.I already ordered Apex Induction kit,TRD Strut Bar(Front) and Ultra Ignition Cables,help me to go next with my GT-4.

best bang for ur buck with the 3sgte is to get a boost controller and raise your boost up a few psi. i think the 3rd gen is at like 13 psi stock aka little under 1 bar. you could easily raise it up 3 more and see some nice gains from that alone. have you looked into a new exhuast system?

for exhaust i would try the HKS super dragger...try going to 6gc.net click on parts database and you can do it from there or if you are real lazy just click here. its a list of a lot of parts for you car..

after DUDE's idea of raising boost i would suggest new suspension... like some coilovers or separate springs and struts...lighter wheels and tires that have more grip...for the sake of your turbo get a boost controller like DUDE said that has a turbo timer...there is more but this should start you off right



edit: for the safety as raising boost also upgrade the fuel system...get the s-afc. you can adjust your fuel and air ratio and lots of other things with this...also your ignition, plugs, plug wires, fuel pump, maybe even a new fuel rail and some bigger injectors...since you have the water to air intercooler you should be fine to around 16 psi stock..

look into getting a larger diameter turbo down pipe, sometimes on some cars there is as much as 30hp hiding in a restrictive downpipe, i dont know if there are after market ones for the gt4 but i am sure there is.
i would buy the boost controller, turbo timer, exhaust (the super dragger is a good one) and a intake and look into the downpipe

Thanx GT2GT4 and TurboGT14PSI i think i already done short wink.gif shopping list.
The HKS Super Dragger looks fine and i`m very positive for adding the S-AFC + the downpipe.Yes for sure i need more handling with my GT-4 but i was expecting more,my WRX with the STI sunspension was really the something else and i want to have the same with my GT-4 thats why i already order the Front Strut Bar.DO you know if the GT-4 have Factory LSD?
Thank you again tongue.gif

HKS Dragger and a downpipe will make the car loud as ****. just so you know. that's a very very loud exhaust. maybe check on www.alltrac.net in the tuning section for other exhaust ideas. they have st205 info on there as well.
