Well cheapest mod to get u more power instantly is a bleed valve, but before u do that you might aswell upgrade 2 important things

sell ur safc buy a power fc (reasonanly cheap - great results) or better, and upgrade ur turbo one which doesnt change the ext wastegate i.e direct bolt on (HKS 2530/2535/2540) or highflow ur standard (might aswell get hks)

then throw it on dyno - boost up and tune - and from their upgrade further items if required (afm / injectors etc)

Also make sure it is a 600hp fuel pump u have, u dont want it failing (dyno will show u figures of fuel leaning etc)

if ur running stock suspension id suggest getting aftermarket, otherwise ull have problems gettin the power to the road - and a heavy duty or button clutch

Um i thought they said it was auto???

Yeah basically it depends on how much $$$ u have got 2 spend & what areas u would like 2 concentrate on most, i recently got a whole pkg type thing done..was definitely worth the money tho.

p.s. do not buy a bleed valve, would b better off in the long run 2 buy an electronic boost controller..will hold boost properly instead of fluctuating up/down like a bleed tee.

the power fc wont work with the auto, it will do jerky gear changes and made the auto box angry. most aftermarket engine management ecu's dont deal with auto at all. your current best option is the safc which you have or a remapped ecu (check out for sale section re: remapped r33 ecus $250 special at the moment). as for bleed valve you already have some good hardware why buy a crap $100 bleed valve? get a hks ez 3 ($350 ish second hand) as its an electronic boost controller and wont bleed/spike and would probably be much more suited

before doing injectors / ext gate turbo / etc get your auto box checked and strengthened. your local auto shop should be able to do a "stage 2" upgrade it which should allow for quicker gear changes and a snappier response also make the box stronger so it doesnt go bang. for suspension at the least get a pineapple kit (around $300 i think) and then look at a whileline works kit if you want ($2000 retail ish?) for a complete upgrade. what tyres do you have? tell me they arent like 225's or something stupid, 255s are you friend
