Explainations Needed.... Can't Post

I hope I dont get flamed to bad for this.....but here it goes...!
Is there a site that explains all the upgrades that can be done to increase the hp on a turbo Cruiser? I read about stage 1, stage 2 and so on BUT what exactly are these upgrades. I have been reading the posts here on the BB but I just get bits and pieces from one post to the next.
Also I know that the plug wires suck but which brands would I use to replace them. I think u get the picture as to what Im looking for.
My Cruiser is an '06 GT with automatic tranny and 16K miles. I do notice that it sometimes will misfire at full throttle but my dealer thinks Im nuts and says nothing is wrong.
Thanks folks.....

Yep, that'll give you the lowdown on making the PT go faster. By the way, there is no Stage 2 for the PT GT, only for the SRT-4 and, well, you know your car better than the dealer does!! Upgrade plugs and wires and you'll likely be just fine.

Well to start you could get this PLZTR5A NGK plugs gapped at .035, MSD plug wires that should solve the miss problem. Stage one it $480 at Haynes speed shop. Its up to you. Check out the Pt crew link form the other guys and you'll see.
