My college roommate was stuck in the low 13s on a Big16G with stock injectors. Once he put 660's in he hit low 12s. Having said that, you will need 550 injectors at least. A small 16G turbo is a fine upgrade, as is the BigT-28. With the 16g series turbos you will need a $200 install kit from RRE. You are also going to want a 2.5" downpipe and either a 3" hi-flow cat or test pipe. Upgrading the whole exhaust helps so much with a larger turbo. You will also want to upgrade your intercooler as well. The stock one heatsoaks on the stock turbo. Imagine what a 16G could do to it. Basically, a turbo upgrade should be the last thing you do. All of the other supporting mods should be taken care of before upgrading the turbo. You might be able to get away with a small 16G on the stock intercooler and fuel system for a little while, but don't push the boost over 15psi. When you upgrade the fuel system and intercooler you will be able to see 18-19psi daily.
very interesting, that sounds good. Now as for the FMIC, since I have greddy upper and lower piping...can I use them with the new FMIC or no. what would you recommend FMIC wise? thanks again

yes, you'll be able to use the GREEDY FMIC with your pipes. The IC has the piping routed to the stock locations.
A T-28 will bolt right on and you'll see a definite increase in power but for the money, I'd go with an EVOIII 16G. Yes, you'll need to spend an extra $200 on an install kit but the turbo will take you ALOT further.
I was really thinking about going the T-28 route myself but after alot of research went with the EVOIII and I feel I made the right choice.
