7* replace any bits that are breaking with better more expensive bits to keep the whole thing moving.
8. Redo half the work you have done already because it was done badly and then get a good result finally.

That's the American way!

Depending on what power and application you want your car for. Pretty much upgrading any supporting mods before you get a turbo would be the best idea i believe. Fuel pump, injectors, ECU, Bigger Cooler/FMIC, exhaust, blah blah blah.

Leave stock rims on so you can take less heat from the ol five ohh and chop everyone when u get a stickser that im going to put on my car that says....."Lawn bowls for life".

heh, stages are such a trev carby way of thinking. there is no "right and wrong" order to do mods in. as kato said, decide what you REALLY want to be doing with the car in a year from now, and start collecting parts as necessary

ok cool. Basically i wanted to see if i can put a bigger turbo on yet or if there is something i should do first, i think i should be ok once i have done my intake and fuel pump with the mods i have already

thanks

Ecu ?

for a bigger turbo...an aftermarket dump pipe and probably intercooler is the way to go...

i generally subscribe to doing the supporting things first..
eg intake/exhaust/handling/cooling before you go drop a big ass turbo in

plus bigger injectors if you want to get the most out of the bigger turbo
