If I were you I would do this:

1. Megasquirt
2. A GT25R turbo
3. upgraded intercooler
4.Jak's exhaust sounds good, do that
5. Bridgestone Potenza RE01R summer tires

Intake pipe at this point doesn't matter. It will later on though. A ball bearing tubo will run you close to a thousnd dollars after all the lines and all. It may seem more expensive up front, but trust someone who's tried to skimp on htese things before, you will want a good unit eventually and there's no reason to spend twice. The intercooler I'll look into, but cheap ebay ones are good. Going to be around 300 or so. Megasquirt I'm going to let you research on your own You have a lot of reading to do.

I read on the mega squirt and i don't think i can do that lol
so i will get the piping later
this weekend I'm Buying a Mbc
a boost gauge from glow shift
and a boost gauge pod
the next time i get money I'm going for the inter cooler
and since i already bought my air filter will i have to do that whole unit over or just the pipes
