ok as some know im getting some stuff together to get my car a little bit better

the list i have so far is

intercooler
hard pipes
new external wastegate
exhaust system
breather system
all new pipes for boost controller

what i need is a turbo housing as mine is very damaged due to 2 bolts snapping and i had to modd it

im on the stock evo 5 turbo sow what would be a good upgrade, the turbo fine i just need an exhaust housing but gona have to buy a complete unit by the looks of things

also do this stainless elbows make a difference? aswell

i have a stainless elbow on mine, cant confirm if they made a difference, because i dont have a before or after rr graph etc,,

but they should make turbo spool better and can sometimes depending on other things have bhp gains of 5bhp - 15bhp,,

no need to change std intercooler unless you have damage or its leaking. Even then your prob looking at an expensive upgrade to get considerable increase over std

Stainless elbow if bigger than std will improve spool
