New 1994 Twin Turbo Auto Trans, So Where to Start

Supreme Fuel in my world is pump gas/91 octane. Thank you for the leak down videos. Did the compressions last night all between 172 and 174. That seems pretty good to me. I am under the impression 185 is the stock box number. Timing belt was just changed 6k earlier(good maintenance records on this baby).

I am shooting for the 5 to 6 hundred + in WHP. I was thinking about buying a new stand alone programable ECU with more than on map. Put the bolt on parts needed to run race fuel or 91 octane with 2 different maps.

I assumed that means the following:
Complete New Fuel System(pump/injectors/etc)
New Single turbo/manifold/etc
New exhaust down piping and all, shoot for 4"(lose the cats)
Intercooler with all piping(750 to 1000 WHP range maybe)
New radiator
Bigger Brakes
Rebuild the stock auto trans

Hold off on cams, valve springs, guides, and other internals for now.

Shoot for low 500 with the 91 octane and high 5 to low 6+ with race fuel and more boost in the map. And if I get addicted to this thing and want more.... then all I should have to do is get a bigger turbo and buy a race fuel farm(hehehe)

I have done meth injection before and still do on my 4Runner(I dropped in a 3rz with a small turbo). Not that happy with that system to tell you the truth. I fill that it is kind of a mickey mouse bandaid in opinion(not that I really have your experience in this arena) it's just more of a gut feeling.

Borg Warner has a new turbo out(within in the last year and a half). I think it has a titanium fan and is suppose to spool up quicker. I am reading and hearing roomers that by 3k it has strong pull up to 5.5K Still looking into the truth about that turbo.

So that is my starting point. I still want to use this car to drive around town when I want too. I realize that I may have to sacrifice something but I want an all around street car with some get up and freaking go!

What do you think. How far off the mark am I here?
