I guess that's just my dilema Mike mate
I wish I lived in the U.K as I'd hop in my Sapphire and drive down the road to my local tuners and be done with it.
So frustrating living over here as unless I want to trade my Cossie in for a Japper then I'm kind of screwed.
With that off my chest
I guess the power level at this stage that I'm after is the most I can safely and reliably get out of a completely standard internals 2WD engine.
With only having done things like....
Bosch 803 Green Fuel Injectors,
Ahmed Bayjoo Chip 3BL6R24.803,
3 Bar Map Sensor,
-31 Wastegate actuator.
Pace RS500 Spec Intercooler,
Bailey breather system,
Full set of Red Samco silcone water and boost hoses,
K&N pod filter,
Bailey DV-30 recirculating Dump Valve,
Bailey Power Steering and Header Tanks,
Group A head gasket,
Mongoose 3" Stainless Steel Exhaust System
Koni Adjustable Sports Suspension front and rear,
Chassis Dynamics uprated springs front and rear,
Ferrodo DS2500 fast road/track brake pads front and rear
Philloy Group A Front Strut Brace.
The car is running 18 psi of boost on the standard un-moddified T03 Garrett turbo
There's a few chaps on here who have done the 4x 403 Grey injectors with the T34 .63 housing and that to me sounds bloody good
Obvioulsy I'd need to find someone who was willing to write me a chip so it can all run smoothly though as all the tuners will be able to do with my car once the new bits are fitted is adjusting the fuel pressure, boost and alter the C0 screw
