ok,i have the money to get a rev hard2 turbo now but i have an RPS street clutch which is a mild upgrade but replaced less than 2000 miles ago, stock suspension and stock michellins. i know i should upgrade those 1st but id rather get the turbo kit, keep calm and just have fun with it, and upgrage the rest from there. open to insights and suggestions.
Then get the turbo kit and slap it on. You're clutch will probably start slipping soon, but will be semi-drivable for a little while. But, you will have to replace the clutch eventually, so make sure you are going to have the money for that.
Stock suspension and stock tires: Keep em till you wear out your tires then, replace the tires. Your first set of tires with a turbo kit aren't going to last long
If you are happy with the stock suspension, leave it.

this im aware of but traction can be severly optimized with new tires and adjustable suspension,etc
i've been on a oe clutch for 10k miles and just a month ago it started slipping.
w/ stock suspension and all season tires it spins 1st and on pavement from a rolling start, but concrete or at the track it grabs with regular wheel spin from launch. (@ lowest wg setting, 7psi)
