Even with basic upgrades like exhaust/cooler/14psi should get a Mk2 into the 12's. If not you're doing something very, very wrong.
Don't waste your money on Apexi Sards, HKS TRDs, JUN FCONs and HIV Nismos, if you're straying from the stock ECU, get a full management system and be done with it. I don't like Microtechs that much but I'd take one over any combination of those stupid rice things. Believe me, I have a friend with a stack of the things and he wishes he just bought a new ECU in the first place. All you do is fix one limitation and then run into another down the track. They're good in theory but in practice they're never what you want.
Only one worth considering is a PowerFC, and they're hard to come by at a good price.
Same with the turbo.. don't waste money on hiflows - they were a compromise from the factory, so they're still a compromise in a modified car. Save up for a real one or you'll just disappoint yourself.
