Better flowing exhaust manifold, bigger injectors/pump and run it on e85. Running it on e85 could get expensive, with out up grading the turbo and pushing more boost you maybe stuck, but the power you have now seems fairly decent considering you have don't basic mods

I don't want to change nothing with engine wise yet, so tactically im stuck to what i got now... Only manifold, so you think my exhaust isn't good enough or?

equal length headers - heat coated, silicon turbo intake pipe that's it then its E85 upgrade.

Anyway, if you do all that except E85, you will have far more car than you can handle and it would be a waste not to track it! your torque atw would be heading towards 475nm on a mainline dyno which is tyre stripping stuff. E85 would probably yield another 10% + Torque again a waste if not tracked!

good luck and keep us posted!!

Silicone intake from eBay is anywhere from 200-400 dollars, if you want to run e85 you need to up grade the pump and injectors. Fuel pump can be had for less than 300, and I'm not to sure what injectors go for

Why would anyone run e85 on the street. Dont suggest stupidity. Unless paying $3.00/L is fine with you and getting less ecconomy.
