One more upgrade before the tune!

One more upgrade before the tune!

Hey All,

I am thinking about doing one or two more things to my 02 WRX before I get a tune. Right now, I just have a 3" turbo back exhaust and a Cobb AP V1. I was thinking a FMIC or an upgraded turbo, or maybe both. What are your thoughts on the next best upgrade? Thanks!

if you upgrade the turbo, then go FMIC
stock td04 & FMIC will get you better to end but will hurt your spool a lot
