Ahh.. ok.. so sti/legacy turbo would be the route that I should go...i already have the SPT catback... so all I would need to complete this is a bigger TMIC and uppipe/downpipe with a tune...i'm waitin for the SPT Hi Flow Intake...

Nothing heavy. Put a request in for the JDM SPT sport muffler system at japanparts.com. Waiting for a reply.
