You've yet to say anything that proves otherwise. If you want our help, first you need to help us help you!

Basicly a stock 2gb gsx with boltons as of right now.
Alright, I'll give you my $0.02 on a modification list (even though my car is farrrrrrr from 600whp). However, it would be great if you could expand on what boltons means.

Tell us how much you have to spend, what kind of fabrication skills you have, what kind of goals you have besides horsepower, and quit acting like a damn noob.
There is this thing called google, you can search for things there, there are websites with 600hp dsms on there that usually have some details about their setups, go there instead of wasting our time, or quit acting like a dman noob and maybe we can help you.

Then I guess stiffer valve springs is back on the list then.
I don't know a damn thing about 600hp setups, but people have had luck just shimming the stockers.
To add to the list given of what's needed, add a well built engine. You can't count on much more than 400hp on a good tune (from what everybody seems to be able to get away with) on a stock bottom end. The best way to think of the goal you've set is to plan on replacing better than half of the functional parts of your car. It's quite a goal.
Is that more helpful?
And don't be insulted by everyone's anger over this thread. You may not realise it, but you're posts give away an ignorance that will not allow you to meet your goals, yet. Hence the recomendations to set them a little lower. Set a goal of 300-350hp. The steps you'll take to get there will give you a lot of the knowledge you'll need to go higher. What you need to know to hit 600hp reliably is not the type of info you can gain by asking 'what do I need' on a forum.

sorry guys but doing the step by step thing like I mentioned before is a real waste of my money and I rather get direct advice from you guys that been throught it many times before. I don't know about you guys but when it comes to things I know and someone asks me what should I do I normally help and guide and inform them what to do and buy. I don't do the shaddy "I don't what people to catch up or be at my level" unlike other people.
I think it's been mentioned here before by someone that some guys don't want other people to catch up or outstage them and so they won't help noobs or give them solid advice.

if you want to go righ tot hte 600hp mark, and you dont have all the money it takes right away, start from the outside and work in. do suspension, get a built tranny, get the right turbo/manifold/exhaust/fuel system, then work your way inside, get headwork and finally get the block built. Once you have everything, then turn up the boost, tune it and you're there.
