Removing the unishit and replacing with anything else will be the best mod in the world.

CAI is not needed.

FMIC is not needed. Will just give lag.

Adjustable or fixed doesn't matter. Adjustable you will put on the hardest setting. Putting on the softer settings is like changing to a 22mm rear bar. Waste of time imo. Go hard or go home!

I reckon your plans are pretty sound, I did similar with my 05 sti mid 2008. Got 300hp (5600rpms) and 420Nm (3600rpms) at the hubs.

My list below. Depending on what you plan to do with the car, can go for more power if streeted (bigger turbo/FMIC) or tracking go for suspension, bracing and TMIC.


K & N Drop-in panel filter
Pro-speed Silicon Turbo intake
FP18G Turbo
Sti TMIC
Perrin Headers (Coated and wrapped)
X-Force dump-pipe, (Custom "Stacey Spec" Venturi to suit angle mounted turbo?)
Trust JASMA Ti-R Full Titanium 80mm Exhaust
Motec M800
Decapped 814cc Sti Injectors
Sti in-tank anti-surge assembly and uprated sti fuel pump.

Kartboy Short-shift Kit and HD bushings
Sti Group N Transmission and engine mounts
S204 Pink Bits Sti Adjustable Struts
Whiteline Rear diff cradle locking kit
Whiteline Anti-lift kit
CUSCO Front Strut brace with Mater Cylinder support
CUSCO Type 2 front underbody brace
CUSCO 21mm front swaybar
CUSCO 22mm rear swaybar

So to go twin scroll or not to.... is it really worth the extra dollars for the turbo to come on 300rpm earlier??
As far as i know all i need is the 06+ Sti sump, dipstick tube, pickup and headers?

go for twin scroll, I already have the mods you listed cept for the stuff below

Keep the STI top mount imo
PSR Billet TS TD05-18G is what Im getting from Im back from holidays, not into the top end power - low to mid range power add lots of boost

only thing to get now is the TS bracket and a TS DUMP, coat my TS headers
