ummm..... what kind of boost do u plan on running....i guess head studs in you plan on modding in the future...and as well for the cams... cams on stock turbo...as many people will say arent worth much for what they will do unless u have an upgraded turbo...

im assuming you have a ix?

semi aggressive tune...maybe 330-350whp..

The S1s don't produce quite the gains Cosworth or JUNs make, but generally 340-350 WHP on a Dynojet.

What kind of TBE do you have? Test pipe? I don't think you need the headstuds. FMIC won't really add much power (Maybe the LICP will help spool), but it will make your dyno and track runs consistent. May I suggest removing your BOV. It is VTA, yes? AEM makes some great stuff but I don't know if you'll fully benefit from it at this level of power. A MBC is usually suitable for <450 WHP.
