Dark greens(803's) injectors, 3 bar map, T34, Rs500 intercooler, chip.
This should get you 350bhp, might be on limit for injectors though so maybe dark blue or grey needed.
Some head porting makes an awful lot of difference on these, as exhaust ports VERY small and shrouded, £200 ish for this porting.

Not sure at all about the colour of the blues!!
I would without doubt fit a group a as this benefits even a std cossie, massively.
I would also fit a breather system, would not hurt even on a std one.
Ported head is NOT necessary but when you look at the torque curve of a ported head cos with a non ported, the ported boosts earlier and a lot harder and holds it a lot better, just a very noticable increase per pound spent.

You want to get your facts right

It was last done at Surry Rolling Road, which is a Dyno Dynamics one.

It was done on a PF RR Day which was featured in Fast Ford and mine won the sorted award
