50hp to the tire is going to be hard. with bolt ons like intake and exhaust wont do much. you will need to cam it, and custom tune it, probably one of thoes m1 intake manifolds.

You probably should still run cats otherwise your O2 sensors will be very confused and make it run worse, and if you have emissions its kinda required.

I would say headers, hi flow cat & muffler, intake, Fastman TB, camshaft, tuner.

AKA, look at any of Urban or User's threads.

STS has a single turbo kit for around 2k. idk what sort of budget you have set for this project but 2k for a turbo kit is a pretty sweet deal.

Not possible with bolts-ons. You're looking at a tuner, exhaust work, M1 intake, 52mm throttle body and a cam at least.
