There are three traits to a car. Fast, Cheap and Safe. But you can only have two of the three. So to explain.
Cheap and Safe wont be Fast.
Cheap and Fast wont be Safe.
Fast and Safe wont be Cheap.
There are exceptions, but this holds true as a general rule.
I can tell you one cheap, safe way to add 30HP is Brian from GST's free basemap w/ boostpill. $1/HP is pretty good in my book, and should be pretty safe.
I'd start there and then move on to a bigger IC, and upgraded IC piping. All of which can be gotten pretty cheap used from others.

To get to 330awhp, you'll need to look into a turbo upgrade on top of all the other mods (fmic, exhaust, etc). You may also want to shore up the transmission, either with a remap of the clutch packs or cooler or both. Look into the CBRD RAD turbo threads and the Evo X turbo swap threads for more info.
It will be a long process to get to your goal, and I'd recommend you take the time and read everything you can about making power on the RA before you go ahead with anything. Take your time, do it right, do it once.

trying to buy those. thats what i have been offered so far for $700 and a used Evo X FMIC for $100.
Kracka is actually the guy i want to purchase the parts from, BTW Kracka, COBB gave me an install quote but not a total price with dyno and so on and military discount.
also, i was looking into maybe an exhaust too, but idk if DC SPORTS 4" is better than ULTIMATE RACING's (i believe it's them) 4" exhaust
