Thank all =)
I have started seeing more RA's about the place, funny (and please do laugh) i had no idea the RA existed until 1 month ago, fell in love with the idea of the car and the potential behind it for a rather modest budget.
Going in to Toowong Mitsi for the recall on the drive belt tensioners. (I think it was released this year)
Ok, so updated list: (After speaking to Megatron [Super helpful])
**Stage 1** aka budget stage
- Injen Short Ram (Ordered)
- TurboSmart BOV
- Replace Relay for Fuel Pump (Rough idle randomly) with Green Mitsi part
- Replace CAT with Highflow
- Boostpill
- Tune by Megatron on the dyno
- Better brake pads and rubber
**Stage 2** slightly more $$ needed
- Tough call, throw an Evo X turbo on or replace the wastegate on stock
- larger FMIC
- solid UICP and LICP
- 3 port
- Remainder of exhaust all 3" etc
- Retune

Nice list, although replacing the wastegate on the current turbo will not give any extra power at all - probably not worth the bother unless your current wastegate is faulty
An evo turbo on the other hand........

Yeah your right, but it will hold the higher boost better than stock. Cost vs cost the new turbo will deliver more =)

higher boost wont help u any, what u should be looking at is a long flat boost curve and the little TD04 wont give u that whereas the evo TD05 will.
the TD04 runs out of puff no matter how high the boost
