this has been covered heaps, search is your friend!!

but once again. it all depends on what you want at the end, as a good daily driver soemthing like this

VF34 turbo (Go have a look at the turbo thread in mechanics, gives you a rundown on all the vf series turbos and specs)
02 sti tmic or fmic
910 fuel pump
turbo back exhaust
cai and silicone inlet pipe
ecu (autronics, motec etc).

ull get good power and will still be a reliable daily driver.

Sigh...

What do you want? How much can you spend? How long is a piece of string.

Answer these questions and you will be fine.

And think about how good you are as a driver. i'm not having a go, im being serious. If you have an unmodded wrx now then you'll be pushing up to 100% increase in power with the above. Big difference.
