It's all on here, for such a common upgrade path - just search! I'd try to get a Power FC if you can, less fuss for closer to stock 'niceness' eg coldstart etc. You could probably figure out your options from all the 'what do upgrade next' threads on the first 3 plages of this section alone.

if u get the stock turbo highflowed it shouldnt get too much turbo lag at all. Maybe if was abit bigger then would start to lag. But the turbo size is fine for the engine so shudnt be too much lag. The smaller the less lag

id start looking at coilovers or heavy duty clutch. but if its purely power your after, id be going power fc as well

my main problem with the power fc is the lack of upgrades in the last god knows how long and the little "technical oversight" in the lack of knock correction,is it just the price that turns people off haltech or is there more to it??

Everything you have listed is fine for your goal. Like said above, if the clutch is stock then thats the only thing that will need to be upgraded.

With 220-250kw, you wont need to worry about lag at all, very similar response to factory with a highflow or T28 series turbo.

Hey... this might be a stupid question, but would a T28 bolt straight on the r33 stock manifold and would it be a upgrade from the stock r33 series 2 turbo? i hear that the T28 can handle more boost.

[PM-R33]

A t28 off of an S15 you mean? No it wont, T2 flange, not a T3 and the dump pipe is a 5 bolt not a 6. But yeah it is a better turbo than the T25 stock turbo.

hi-flow turbo does not need larger injectors....

if your on a budget even a safc2 will suffice

should get the 225rwkw your after

your gonna need a bigger turbo then hi-flow to hit 250rwkw
