Where to go from where I'm at. Need some help

Right now I have an 05 STi with the basic mods, K&N typhoon, HKS Carbon Ti Exhaust.. I am looking at a new Down pipe, Accessport, Headers, and a bigger Turbo.. I would like to tune it and eventually put about 370-400 at the wheels.. in the long term ya know?

I am thinking that I should get the Downpipe and Accessport first.

any opinions on what to go with next????

I agree with thunder.......i personally would wait on the headers till either one hawaii gets a awd dyno or if you plan on going to the mainland (just my 2 cents) with that being said i would get a utec


good luck

i just think if you want high hp application, youd go with something else other then accessport. nothing against ap's but like what 4080 said, probably utec or some other form of em.. but for the utec and ap/street tuner, your gonna need to tune which i think IS going to be hard cuz correct me if im wrong, no one on the island has tuned to the to get the MAX hp out of their wrx/sti.. i dunno, im talking nonsense...

I say more driving time w/ your car. Learn about the limits of your car first. Cornering, breaking, acceleration... etc... before jumping to high HP... just MHO. But if you're ready, then by all means.

DP and some kind of engine management.

Don't forget Suspension and Brakes also make you go faster around a track.
