No way you will find a 33 with 400hp for 8k as for a true 400hp you need to uprate the turbos and that is quite costly.

You will get a 32 with 450 for 8k if you speak to ron at rk tuning as he has one for sale as we speak.

You need to start it from cold big time and if it has any rattle and it has not been rebuilt with different pistons then walk away. at least 5 i looked at were rattley as F**k

I tool 2 months to find mine and it still is A1 and i drive it hard. its running a bar of boost and its powerfull although nowhere near as powerfull as it needs to be. it will be going in to have turbos done but it costs 2k fitted then ecu which is about 400 second hand then 300 for mapping.

Then you have about 420hp 450hp (genuine) and the fun can begin. Injectors head gasket and a few other bits and youre at 500. turbos if you get the right ones

HKS-5S will take you to 650hp so im told.

I love my one, comfort reliabilty and power not to mention awesome handling. It really is the complete package for the money. but really you need 10-12k for a nice 400 hp one especially if you want midnight purple.......

Hope this helps. anything else just let me know

Mines always run on vmax.

Stavros what can you get with 380hp and amazing reliability for 8k.
