What exactly will you be doing with the car? If it's a daily driver that you wanna drag on the weekends, MRcontrols is a fantastic primer.

If you're planning on doing any other kind of racing (autox, road racing), you might take a different approach to what type of mods you want. mostly based on what class you want to be in. Hope I could help!

Good luck!

Frank

^^i agree with frank, we need to know what you'll mostly be using the car for. daily driven, dragged, auto-x'ed? or do you just want nutso HP just because? give us some details and we'll go from there...

basic mods should include...intake...exhaust...some sort of FCD...and a boost controller....then turn up the boost to 15 psi and enjoy until you realize thats still not fast enough.....

in that case, the MRControls primer is the way to go. Follow it exactly and you'll be in great shape.

As far as a boost controller is concerned, I'd absolutely suggest the Two's R US MBC. It is fairly cheap, and super reliable. Can't go wrong there.

Have fun!
