What should I buy next?? So far i have autometer boost guage, turbonetics mbc, and a turboback 3" exhaust, what should be my next purchase. I have $500 to work with.
 
Well can always consult the tuning guide. it has a good list of staged upgrades.


I would say,Intake IC pipes,BOV,and fuel pump.

Later,
 
If i get intercooler piping(side-mount) will it bolt up to a fmic core or will i still have to buy the full fmic kit
 
depends which fmic you get... but you should upgrade your "crushed" ic piping (the plastic one the bov attaches to) and BOV before you go any further.

At the very least, you can sell it if you get a fmic kit it won't work with.
 
How could you forget fuel ;)

Ya if need be you can always sell your old IC pipes.

Later,
 
At your power level you only need to re-wire your pump. Spend the rest of your money on a UIC pipe, EGT (Greddy or Westach) and Al Blaha your MAS. After that I would get a SAFC and injectors (660's are nice).
 
If your not worried about emissions, then a testpipe is a good upgrade, but that's illegal :) Buts is some cheap HP. I would recommend getting a K&N filter. Your BOV is fine that you have, it's just doesn't sound "Cool" like some other BOV's out there. I think you really need to sit down and see what your objectives are with your car. Some people really fail to do this and it cost them money in the wrong run. Yes, you can always sell your parts that you've bought previously, but your always going to lose money on the deal. If your like me and many others, once you begin to start modding, you will always want to go faster :)
 
Don't bother with the IC pipes on a 1G. Worthless until you're running higher boost than you can with a SMIC. Get a fuel pump. You should be able to run ~17 psi with your setup and have a decently quick car on pump gas. 3kGT pumps can ge had for ~$80. Then, maybe a used 16G.
