From the looks of your sig, looks like you need a turbo upgrade. Welcome to the site btw.

I couldn't agree with you more. I'm planning on buying a different car sometime in the next year. Since my car really isn't worth selling, I'm going to add a bigger turbo and SMIM and make it a track/fun car. The ultimate goal will be 450hp on 93 octane. I've seen it done on cars with similar setups but with bigger turbos (obviously).

I know Dre made 500hp on a similar setup to mine but I have no plans of pushing this turbo that far.

True, but while that was pump gas power, it wasnt street/daily driven power. Some people fail to see the difference. Its cheaper and easier to run race gas at all times than it is to swap plugs after every pull.
