lets just say you have already finished w/ suspension and brake mods.

the first power mods you can go are an Uppipe and turboback system. Its a day and night difference.

then some sort of boost controller and an air intake system.

Second question. I am considering picking up a COBB Phase one performance kit, with cold air intake, and cat-back system. For about $800, is this a good place to start, bang for buck wise? Other suggestions?
$800 for an intake and catback! Man I'm in the wrong business! I could make a killing selling stuff to subie owners.

$800 will get you a turboback and you only need a K&N drop in filter for HP levels under 400HP.

I think he meant that Turbo-back and K&N filter will be able to support up to 400hp (i.e. without causing restrictions)

Not a big fan of CAIs. BIG waste of money when the stock unit is just as capable. An uppipe would and downpipe would probably give the best gains at the least amount of money at this point, along with an ECU reflash.
