Cant believe Im saying this already but performance wise I have the following mods...

Decat powerflow exhaust
Greddy Boost Controller
Blitz Induction
HKS Valve
Fuel Pump wiring mod
Walbro Fuel Pump
Hyrid stage 3 turbo
Pro alloy front mount
3.8 Fpr

So whats next on the mod list? Im guessing the downpipe is the only thing I can change with current turbo and if thats the case is it then larger turbo and forged? Help me! smile

Headwork/Cams is about all I can think of.

Flea Map?
Bigger turbo
Gas flowed head
C&B Camshafts?
Downipe
Organic clutch?


That's all I can think of, nice spec btw, I am nearly in same boat as you and deciding on next step.

Oh sorry it has been live mapped by Leighton smile

Whats headwork? Is that like going forged or something else? Will the cams do anything then? I did think about a larger turbo but Im fairly certain a standard engine once they go over 350 - 360 needs uprating ie forged?

Once the downpipe is done it would be nice to know what the next part is to buy and fit or will I need a number of things?

Headwork includes porting / valves work which will allow higher / more air flow into the engine.

The cams will benefit the mid to top end I guess. However, the cost is high as you will be getting someting like 10-20hp from the cams.

If you cross the 350hp, it's recommended to get forged internals just to be on the safe side. Some Coupes have achieved 400hp on standard internals though.
