1: CAI (probs GruppeM or Injen if I'm tight for $$)
2: Cat back exhaust
3: ECU (K100 / 300?)
4: maybe a full toda system...a BIG maybe...

is that basically all thats needed for a EP3? other than spending massive amounts for a few gains after? also tell me if i got the order wrong since im prob retarded :)

cheers guys

I went injen, cat back, headers, coilovers and few bars.

I got gruppeM and rm01a catback, plus apexi vafc2, it's pretty powerfull and sounds very good, so far best 1/4mile time is 14.2@162km/h, lot's of people told me I should be able to get into mid to high 13s with better 60" time and bit of weight reduction.
So power wise EP3 is up there with lots of boosted cars, for example few evos on the night were getting high 13s and low 14s which is nothing special when you consider they are 4WD plus turbo hehe

Hey guys, just picked up some skunk2 stage2 cams, springs and lifters... a k-pro and a 70mm throttle body! I'll keep you guys updated on my gains. I plan on getting it installed and tuned by bel-garage in sydney. Would everyone agree they are the best option for this?
