Default Rather confused

I'm planning on going with the Turbonetics single turbo sometime in the future, but I'm a little confused as to what upgrades I can do now that will benifit me in the long run. I guess ehaust, suspension, headers if they match up with stock headers. Is that about it? What would you guys recommend? Generic or specific.

The exhaust will be the only thing that can carry over in the long run to the turbo kit. Don't do headers if you are going to do that kit, because it uses your stock manifolds and you want to keep them stock for the kit. headers will probably crack with that kit. so stay stock there. And as far as y pipe, i'm not sure if that will or not. Everything else like intake etc.. won't carry over.
A plenum will carry over too more than likely.

the exhaust might not carry over with the single turbo kit. Might need to stick with a single, like the nismo, or at least check with turbonetics first.

In fact, if it were me, I would send them an email asking what components would be good upgrades in preparation for their kit.

Cool I think I'll do that.

Turbonetics doesn't have email

Guess I'll have to call

Most important upgrade in my opinion would be a clutch
