Yeah it is on my budget, a V44 vipec is as well and looking at the software features etc i'm kinda swaying that way mapping costs appear similar think either would be better than a go tech spoke to the guy who did my re-bore he reckoned the mbe ecu's were better than the emerald ones but I'm reasonably confident there isn't much between them.

guess the t3 gave away my target power lol should be plenty fun however,
my main thing is i want to keep it as 'factory' as possible this includes the reliabilty, idle preformance etc

thanks everyone who has contributed so far most constructive comments etc makes a change from some forums lol
