best (only real way) to do it is,
upgrade your

ecu
turbo - gt35 or a to4e or somthing
turbo manifold
intercooler
fuel system
radiator to be safe

and thats about it, sounds easy, simple and cheap eh? go for it!

Big #'s is never cheap. And non of those turbo's will never give you 500hp not to mention 800. The upgrades you mentioned are essential for any turbo setup. As a matter of fact, those are beginner upgrades. When you want power, you are gunna have to run many custom parts. For that much power, breathing from the stock intake manifold becomes a big problem. Also custom exhaust manifold, you might even need to sump your oil. There are many things that you need besides the basics and they are plenty expensive.
custom exhaust manifold was obvious since you needed to go single turbo, as for hp figures i was talking about flywheel hp... would a gt35 really not make 600 flywheel hp? admittedly i was jumping in a lil early their, i should have researched more... intakes custom made wouldnt be that expensive to make would they? surely its the same basic principal as making intake manifolds? or would furthur porting the housings be required?

its all about learning from the gods(u guys)

flywheel, maybe. But the thing is, that no matter how much you have flywheel,the one that counts is how much you gettin to the floor.

About the expense for a custom intake manifold. Ever tried to ask around how much is a custom exhaust manifold? When I was looking for mine, they ranged from anywhere in the higher $500's to the upper 9's someguy even quoted me $1k with 2 1/4" runners. Now, think about an intake manifold. There are people the sell the UIM, exactly like the factory one, except the ports are gasket matched, and they removed the acv and the water outlet for the turbo's. Those run about $600. So like I said, building and making power does take skill and alot of $. A gt35 turbo is small. Power will have to be in the 20-30psi for you to actually get close to 600.
