Default any suggestions on my combination

1999 Firehawk
STS, fmic, GT67 turbo, 42lbs injectors, tuned
3500 stall. 3.23 rear, stock Y pipe with cats.
Mocal pump and return line routed into oil pan.
my goal is a 450-500rwhp

Car runs great is there anything missing? Would you add or change anything?

If your dead set on keeping that STS then your probably going to need to go with a little bigger turbo, maybe a 70 w/ a complete exhaust wrap and some meth so you can run a little more boost and timing.

BTW lose the cats or you'll be sorry when that crap breaks up and goes through your turbo.

hmm get rid of the cats if one comes apart it will probably take out ur turbo otherwise everything else will be fine to get you 500hp if you wanna go beyond ur gonna have to upgrade ur injectors to 60's. read up on the sts kit to see if your gonna like it,is your car lowered? my car had a 2inch drop and the road around michigan suck *** and i was hitting everything,so i sold it and went front mount

Thanks, It's the stock height for a Firehawk, I did rework some of the tubes to get it to tuck up better.

1. remove cats

Anything else?

I still say that 67 is going to have a hard time getting you to 500 unless you COMPLETELY WRAP THE EXHAUST and get meth so you can increase the boost and timing.
