yep BYT tune, plus downpipe and intake if you want cool turbo nosies.

that setup should net you anywhere from 290whp - 320whp.

FYI getting a Forge BPV AND a HKS BOV is gonna be pretty difficult.

IMO, steer clear of BOVs. They been played out for like 5 yrs now. Stick with the BPV. It'll make tuning a tad bit easier too.

You won't *need* a tune but you should definitely get one. You'll get much better performance if you do.

Your best bet would be to hold off installing the parts until you can get the tune reasonably soon after.
