intake
FMIC
Exhaust
rocketchip
hybrid turbo
injectors
fuelpump/regulator
supporting gauges
bump boost to 15+PSI

with all that your car would be pretty damn fast.

lose the AC and R2 seats to lose some weight and i think you would be very pleased

Best of luck on the body kit:
The rear bumper is Ferrari 360, the side skirts are Porsche Turbo, and the rest I can't remember.  At the time, if I remember correctly, the kit cost over 8000 euros to have made. The thread was first posted around '04 or '05, I think. The guy lives in Greece, and did a whole lot of work on his Capri!
