still dont think youll see any real gains mate!seriously, look at the usual tuning routes!what has been done to it so far? try bigger intercooler,upping the boost a bit,exhaust,filter,chipped ecu etc....far better. search for a thread on fuel pressure,there was a technical thread a couple of days ago,increasing it may not do anything good at all,and may end up killing it dead. the std fuel pump will see the far side of 200bhp anyway

you should be abe to see the exhaust mate! has it got an airbox on it?or cone? get a boost gauge on there and get it checked and set up, if you dont know about its mods or what its running its a good idea to get someone to look at it to check its running right! just for peace of mind,the tuner should be able to tell you whats been done as well!

Unless your on non KE management the Weber reg wont fit, and if it did fit, the engine would meltdown.

Go for a cossy pump, direct fit, no problems and will fuel for more than your CVH puts out all day long. Just ensure the wiring and fuel lines are still adequate.. they are getting old..
