well. its best to have it rewired for best "performance" helps more throughout higher rpms by keeping a steady voltage.

DSM Link is definetly a must if you wanna get the best out of your car....other than AEM EMS of course.
 
Arp head studs, gotta be able to keep that head gasket from blowin with all that new boost! Then you could always throw some better cams in, but I wouldn't say it's a must. Ditch that pos light show a/f guage for an egt guage.(exhaust gas temp). And another + for dsm link.
 
If money isn't a problem go with the hks, but crowers are cheaper. Also I would seriously take a look at some headstuds!
 
Wire the pump, i have the 255 and it was on stock wiring and after adding an AFPR that actually flows decent, my fuel was falling off anywhere past 5k-5.5k RPM ( and my car is fully decked out with management and it still was falling way off). Cams would be a good upgrade from where you're at then some good management and you'll be set for all future upgrades and be able to take advantage of hat you have already even better.
 
Sounds like you have the first basic mod list done. So I would go with some cams(hks 264/272), bigger injectors cause 550's are done at 300whp, and have it retuned.
 
DSM link is a must practically. Great way to help you engine last and get the most power. That cam combo will also be great for the higher end. Then what everyone else said rewire and injectors. That will throw you over 310 i bet. If money isnt a problem then maybe a built 6 bolt is in order? Also the clutch will be needed to handle all that. Maybe suspension if you want better handling.
 
Lightweight flywheel (11-14 lb), if you don't mind losing a little pop off the line for some quick revving in 1st-2nd gears. As mentioned already: ARP headstuds, DSMLink, bigger injectors, rewired fuel pump, cams.

With that combo, 25 psi of boost/high octane race fuel/lot more tuning you should pull 350 w.h.p. It's all about the boost:cool:
