well usually people get a turbo, injectors, fuel rails/pump at the same time, and either get a M/EBC or proper tuning(UTEC/reflash) which is the proper way to go....i dont see the point in getting a bigger fuel pump with stock injectors/turbo...what i would do is get a UTEC now, then later buy a turbo, rails, pump, and injectors at the same time, which is probably the best way to go if you dont want to upgrade the turbo right away

oh and if you do want to upgrade something now and are definately going to get a turbo later then just get a UTEC because if you reflash the stock ecu, you'll have to reflash it again when you get the turbo installed to get your moneys worth

This might be a newb question, but do you really need a FMIC if you only have the exhaust mods and an intake?

No, not necessary at all, a bigger TMIC is usually sufficient for under 320 chp. FMICs, i think, have a bit more lag.

I'd agree with awns, get a BC and some sort of engine management. Get the turbo and fuel mods together and then get it tuned. Before the tune you won't run optimum. Good luck.

I would go with some kind of engine management (UTEC, reflash, etc...)

With the mods you have done you will see the most improvement from engine management.
