I would defently recommend a custom tune too if you got one.If you want a bit more again the most common other parts to upgrade would be, bigger injectors, intercooler, high flow cat, valve springs(if pre BF series 2) and then get it tuned.That would give you alot more grunt and it would feel like a rocket compared to standard.It all come down to how much power do you want and how much you want to spend.And as davidald said do lots of searching and you will find alot of info.

Just as Wright'y said, cheack out the forum man theres heaps of info and plenty of blokes that know what there on about. Find a good tuner in your area and start saving. Once you get these things going they turn into a totally different car.
