Mods??
i done some searching but most of that stuff just confuses me so i am just going to ask and see if this is in simpler terms. I am looking to get around 370rwhp or 350rwhp. I would like more but i don't have the money right now to upgrade to a 2.8 or 3.0 since i just spent the money rebuilding my engine. so with me keeping the mods i have already what else would i need and name specifics (turbo, etc...)
Thanks for the help

The little button in the lower right. (with the pencil and paper) 
From what I know, with that setup you could hit 350 possibly with the right turbo. Whether or not you can do that and have full boost before 3500 is another question.

Daniel, the only thing you need at this point on your car to hit your power-target is a larger turbo and injectors. Typical 1st-step 55# injectors are too small to keep duty-cycle under 80%, so 65#/hr ones would be what you need. Then I can get you a matching set of chips for 18-20psi, which is what you'll need for that power goal without doing head/valve/cam mods.

For an outstanding turbo package that will meet your goal, contact www.vitesseracing.com and chat with John. Quite a few of us have his turbos and love them. in fact, I don't think you'll find one person who has his kit that is dissatisfied. Good luck.

Suspension
Although both Bilstein coilover or replacement KONIs are popular choices, I spotted an interesting coilover kit a while back that may be worth considering. It is produced by a Japanese firm called JIC MAGIC. Yes, strange name but very nice product. If you do an internet search on their name, I'm sure their site will come up quickly.
