Just a remap at sabre will get you up around there. All things like air filter upgrade, decat/sportscat and exhaust will free up a few more ponies

Give the guys at sabre tuning a call. They have got some great results on standard cars.

Mine has got 302bhp and has a Miltek decat, Mongoose system, Forge actuator and K&N cone filter and was then mapped by Jamsport.

As the guys have said a remap will do but I would defiantly upgrade the actuator if it's still on the original.
Did you manage to buy a car at the weekend there.

Don't think a remap alone will do it even by the Sabre guys.

It's a weekend away with the misses mate as I looked into it all for mine but decided not to bother as its only a weekend car and plenty fast for me.
Sounds like a nice one. Get some pics up of it.

Mine did 323bhp on a sabre map with a sabre actuator, decat and a full miltek.

300 is easy with a decent live map, but it's the way it drives and delivers the power!

Get it to sabre, it will be the best money you will ever spend
