I didn't see a larger turbo in that list... most of those things would be pretty pointless on the stock turbo.

You think that might be a bit too big for that 2.0?
I would go with the classic vf34. Everyone is running them with no problems.

I would get engine management ASAP!
I see you're in Alaska though, not sure who the closest tuner would be.
Might even be worth getting a group of people to buy EcuTek and have a tuner fly up.

Either that or drive down to the closest tuner.

EDIT:
Just saw that you got UTEC, that could at least be done remotely.

Car looks good man! What about wheels, brakes, and suspension? Any mods in those areas?
