Intercooler
good FuelSystem "aftermarket has alot of nice ones" also a rasing rate FPR would help to
have the car tuned right
thats a good start on things that would help
main thing is keeping the engine cool and mixing the right amount of air with the right amount of fuel worse thing is having your car run lean thats when you will run into problems

Yep, exactamundo. There's a million ways to ensure a good a/f ratio and proper timing, and as long as you do them and have them tuned on a dyno, you'll be a-ok. The intercooler is less important, in my opinion, if you're running low boost. Once you start to crank up the boost, say, past 7-8 psi, an intercooler is definitely something to look into...
