Hi guys i know i ask a lot of questions but as my grandma always says, "you wont know if you dont ask!" haha as the title says i have got a 2.4 turbo engine to drop in my xlt, but before i put it in im giving it a full rebuilb, what subtle mods can i do to get some nice power gains, not after thousands of bhp just after 250-300 maybe? if more is possible im all ears i mean eyes haha :D

bigger turbo is the way to go, a remap will give your car t5+ performance but even more torque than a standard t5

there we go lol what turbo would you suggest? i was thinking..larger turbo, s/s exhaust, remap, cold air induction, look at changing the camshafts for different ones (not sure which, been reading about N/A shafts being better?) something on that line :)

any of the mitsubishi turbos or go garrett t35 will need modification to fit and oil and water feeds making up
