WHAT NEXT?
Well, i haven't installed my turbo yet, but I'm already thinking what I should add next. My car's just a daily driver, not something that i would autocross or make into any kind of serious drag car. But i think i may want something slightly faster than where it will be with the kit + exhaust. My car has 0 mods other than the ones listed in my sig. Thanks!

Re: WHAT NEXT? (Teg4e)
As far as chassis upgrades, I would upgrade a turbo car in this order:
GOOD tires
Brakes - at least upgrade to Type-R size fronts with good pads
Decent shocks (Koni, KYB, etc)
19-22mm rear sway bar
Coilovers or lowering springs depending on how much you want to drop your car

what he said.. tires are a MUST, definitly get some good brakes if u race alot, if the car is not lowered, i would lower it with a good shock/spring set up.. THen if u need more power, look into boost controller, oh youll need a good clutch, and then maybe a fuel system..

Re: WHAT NEXT? (2K_TEG)
Ok, so suspension things are in order..... i have the stock 14" alloys on my 98 LS, which have Bridgestone Potenza 950's on them. They're supposed to have good dry traction but they still slip. I can't imagine what it's gonna be like when I add another 100HP into them.... the tires are 195/60/14. is it even possible to have good traction on a tire of this size on a FWD car? Does upgrading to a good set of 16x7 make a significant difference? i've been looking and those SSR's.....
Also, thanks for the suggestions on suspension...what brands should i look at/avoid?
