My bf has an STI.. but doesnt deserve it, mad.gif his shifting is embarrising.. almost broke up with him b/c of it mad.gif .. but anyway i want a kit that will rival it or pass it

Sti's aren't that fast. I'd do the basic bolt ons like a boost controller, exhaust, intake, etc. I'd recommend a manual boost controller, they're super easy to install and hold rock steady. Hell my manual on my dsm holds 30psi all the way to redline and it was only 50 bucks. Use the money you saved over a fancy electronic boost controller and buy other go fast goodies.

35r is a nice sized turbo, just make sure you have all the supporting mods like people have already said. You can't just throw a big turbo at a car and expect it to make power.
