With that being said, 300whp is pretty high for the FA20 engine. The rods aren't as strong as the one's in the FA20DIT from the WRX. I believe 240-270whp is the sweet spot with this car and it's weight.

Look into the ACE 350 Header with an Ecutek tune. That should net about 20whp safely.

In terms of supporting mod, you'll want an oil cooler, gauges (boost, AFR, oil pressure), gauge pod to hold your gauges, catchcan, an ecutek tune and device. If you include all that with your FI kit, you'll be looking at around $7k-9k with installation. I don't recommend doing this until your powertrain warranty is out.

As for SC or a turbo..that is up for you to decide. Tons of threads out there about this topic. I personally like the SC route for the instant throttle response and boost.

Best SC kits for our car would be the Jackson Racing, Edelbrock and Harrop. Best Turbo would be JDL and Fullblown. This is just what I've gathered from hundreds of hours of research before boosting my car.

I SC'd my car and it all costed me $6k. Good luck.

Nice synopsis primo (ᵔᴥᵔ)
