whats the best way to go about upgrading my turbo. the car is my daily driver but id like to get some more power out of it. i already have a 1g bov, and a front mount intercooler, what else do i need
 
you can get a 14b/16g and a new oil feed line. direct bolt on for both turbos and a significant difference when they're put on.

16G's are a very common upgrade and IMO the cheapest way without an absolutly need of an EMS, SAFC, etc...

The 16G's will bolt up fine to your stock exhaust manifold, and the stock downpipe. The 2G manifold flows a lot so you are good there. However, upgrading to a 14/16G will need an install kit for the water/oil lines and a completely different J pipe. While your there you should also move the turbo oil feed from the head to the OFH. There are lots of write ups on each of those.

Caution, do not boost much more than stock as your 450cc's will max out very quickly. They are barely adequate for stock as it is. You should invest in a wideband to go with your boost gauge too.
 
Thanks

Or I could post and get my 30 posts to not be probationary anymore...
