I've seen many people on here build engines but I get lost on the terminology. If I wanted to build my engine to reliably boost 7psi @ 280Hp 250 tq what do I change in my engine? the rods and the heads?

TDLR; What are the minimum amount of things I need to change in the engine to reliably boost to 7psi ?

I have a 2017 Subaru BRZ

thanks you guys for input!!!!
Nothing. Spend more on a good tune.

PM me to order a JDL + tune.
