i am really considering about getting an AA turbo system for my car but it seems like the turbo system comes with an exhaust, intake, injectors etc..basically everything i need motor wise. what else should i get for my m3 that will produce more power for my car?

Not sure what you mean. Stage II perhaps.
What Stage are you going to get? As far as I know, the AA turbo kit doesn't come with exhaust. Intake is something of the past when you go turbo. I mean it has a filter with intake piping but it sounds like you are thinking of CAI or something. You should read up on some FI books to better familiarize yourself with how a turbo system works. Believe me...when I got my first kit, I hardly knew a thing about FI. After a lot of reading, it feels so much nicer to atleast know the basics.

The Stage 2 kit goes a bit further with a larger intercooler, a thicker head gasket and other odds and ends.
If you're considering either kit, I would also recommend a diff support bracket.

i think im going to get a stage 1 turbo from AA and then im going to get there turbo exhaust system. The thing is that i have there regular catback system. could i still run normal catback/trackpipe system? Like i feel like i just wasted my money on the normal exhaust system.

That sounds great! I understand that you wouldn't want to start over with the full turbo exhaust due to what you alredy spent on the current one. However there are a lot of guys that want that exhaust system. So you have 2 choices.i think im going to get a stage 1 turbo from AA and then im going to get there turbo exhaust system. The thing is that i have there regular catback system. could i still run normal catback/trackpipe system? Like i feel like i just wasted my money on the normal exhaust system.
1) Sell your current exhaust & go with the full turbo exhaust.
2) Keep your exhaust & add a track pipe.

yeah i guess im going to sell my exhaust system and i will get the AA turbo exhaust. Is there anything else i need besides the turbo kit components?

You will definitely need a turbo clutch! The stock one will be toast pretty quickly! I don't like lightweight flywheels. My personal opinion. It has been talked about & the general consensus is that they really don't help a turbo car much at all. I am actually going to replace mine with a stock one because I hate the sound it makes. Clatter clatter!
