hi first thing would be an exhaust system ebay around £300 , mushroom filter or simular tweak the boost slightly , on from there bin the ecu go for either e5 or e6 ecu plus injectors , uprated fuel pump should see you good for 320bhp

i'd try and find a 5 mate and put the grand to it, it would pay in the long run.
just because its just had t&t put on it dont mean it aint got crank walk or going to get it and end up with an engine rebuild cost on top after you've spent ya pennies on upgrades:(

Easiest and probably cheapest way would be evo 5/6 ecu and injectors, 255 fuel pump and a remap.

Ayc in a 4??

4.4 seconds 0-60 I'll be honest for a 4 engine I think it's maxed to an inch of its life without strengthening the engine and components. How about a bigger turbo wack one of those on with better ic and like already said make sure fuel pump and injectors have been changed

Does I have to be a 4 cos I would say grab a 5 and mod that you will get more out of it as it is stage 1 should see it just over mid 300's

All 4 gsr's have ayc?
Standard 0-60 is claimed to be 4.4 with them so thats just a copy straight from tinterweb.
There really is no need to uprate the turbo on a standard 4 engine unless your trying to blow her up either.

Stage 1 power upgrades 4-9 - Evo Owners Forum

Have a read through robs guide. Should give you the info you need. Basics are as said above by myself though.

+1 to that amazing guide ;-) lol

Jacko post up the advert if you have a link.... But with all those extras sounds like hes trying to have you on a little. Over selling it a little maybe. Especially if you are a complete noob to evo's. Have you had any sort of experience with a turbo car? Maybe ask for someone nearby to come have a look with you...
