yea and you know what, thats all gravy, but at the same time if i'm not satisfied with that much power all i need to do down the road is upgrade the turbo or just boost more, thats why i'm probably gonna spend money on things i would get for a goal of 500rwhp rather than just 350, so like instead of just 38mm, i'm gonna go with 46mm tial wastegate and instead of some cheap headers i'm going with stage 2 headers from sfr just to give some examples

You dont actually need anything but the stock headers at all to get to 350+WHP easily. Save that mod till you want closer to your 550WHP mark I agree with the Tial though.

LTReid, What's it going to be? 350 or 500? There is a big difference between the two. Unless you want to do it twice you need to decide on a path.

Turbo944T, been down the road with modding 951 to get 300-350rwhp. Yes there are plenty of bolt-ons that will get you there (all the mods you mentioned) but no they are not cheap and no I wouldn't do it again.

pftt.... prolly trying to read your mind, in one day you changed your goal from 550 to 350 then still saying

"but at the same time if i'm not satisfied with that much power "

What I am really trying to say is that if you are not happy with 350 then in all probability you will need to redo a lot of things later on to get a much higher desired output, whatever best of lucks and hope you have fun doing it.
