A huge intake, a huge turbo and a huge exhaust.

Lots of people like the Apexi intake or the KO racing intake.

If you don't want a bigger turbo, just up the boost if you're motor is healthy! :)

Probably the sound you're talking about is a Blow Off Valve venting to atmosphere. Many people like the sound, but with MR2s, it often comes at the price of a car that doesn't run well. The aftermarket blowoff valve that most people would suggest for the MR2 isn't as loud as most would like.

There used to be an app for this. Even comes with a blow-off valve sound. The iPhone senses the change in speed and initiates the realistic simulated sounds throughout the range. Connect it to your sound system and aim some speakers out the window. Should be great. No negative effect on performance either.

The new M5 took note and followed these ideas too.

you can replace the stock airbox with a cone filter if you want to hear it better...
