Hello everyone. I have a 23 Forte GT and I’m wanting to give my GT a bit of a boost. This is what I want to do to the car:

XForce exhaust (already done)
Afe stage 2 CAI (already done)
Intercooler (pre ordered)
JB4 93 tune (arrived but not done)

I’m assuming all of this could put me around 225-230whp. What I want to know is are there any other supporting mods I should do to make sure this car is fine at this level? And what power does it start getting bad for the engine/turbo?

thank you guys.

I believe people recommend running a different spark plug with the piggyback, and I'd highly recommend a catch can. Other than that, as far as I know you should be fine. I'm sure others with similar mods (aka basically every GT owner on here LOL) will chime in
Do you have a recommendation on which spark plugs? I’m sure I’ll be able to find a readily available catch can. Thanks!

I'd throw in bushings for engine and transmission from Powerflex, a BOV that can handle more boost with a N75 BOV solenoid, and (optional if you have a 6 speed) the BMS throttle controller to complete the JB4.
I have the 7 speed DCT. I’ll look into the BOV! Thanks
