entry level stg 3 turbos (for a DD)
fuel pump and injectors
larger SMICs
larger MAF
beef up the clutch
2.5" downpipes with free flow cats and exhaust
custom E85 tune, control the torque onset to protect the rods if you are concerned
that should get you near 300 awkw territory
the rest of the stuff is nice but not critical. just because something looks bigger doesn't mean you need it. if there is no before/after FATS or dyno evidence (real, rather than butt) then it's theory and speculation.
if you are just passing through 300 awkw on the way to something bigger then more investment is required with the turbos and to open up inlet and exhaust further. do it once and do it right if that's the case.
brakes and suspension can be from 1K to 10K. minimum is a spring/shock combo and decent front pads. if you aren't tracking or aren't the sort of driver that plays in traffic at stupid speeds then i don't see massive brakes as a must. rear swaybar upgrade gives a nice improvement.
good luck

I'm sure you could convince Paul to sell you his Stg 3 kit

Upgraded the leak rearview mirror with a US OEM item with compass and outside temp!Not that we ever need the compass here in Aust ...... yet but it works well, now gotta find a way to convert the temp to read in Celsius instead of Fahrenheit.

Replaced the damn cam seal cap, what a weird design (#@^%%!@&&#^%$
No more oil burn smell when i turn the heater on hallelujah
While at it, changed the standard temp switch to a lower temp switch ..... and give it a new overflow tank but the cap feels funny, like it dont' close tight enough ........

Have been lazy but the weather is getting better, managed to hide away from the kids and did my reverse sensors. (wrapped the wire/sensors near the muffler with heat reflective tape)
Next will be double din conversion, reverse camera with moving dynamic lines.

You'd better start a new thread, that "stock as a rock" heading is heading for the hills now that summer is here.

Fit ISOFIX factory option bracket, now ready to shop for Recaro Booster Seat. At the same time, ran wire for reverse camera.
