will be fine
1 bar
filter (get a straight run to the turob and box off the filter)
exhaust
that will all see over 270 brake
you can change the fuel pump and try 1.2 bar (possibly with an S-AFC or similar) but i didnt notice moch over a solid 1 bar car unless you want every last 10th. Even then the lands may be on borrowed time.
1 bar is all you need on them really any more and you may as well start with a different base rather than dicking about

Whats a S-AFC?
So there is no need for a chip/setup unless going silly boost? How does the ecu handle the extra boost then will it make the map safe enough or is it on borrowed time running it like that.
He is planning on taking to a hillcilmbing event so wants it to be able handle more power safely.
Sorry for all the questions but i know nothing about GTIR's and although he is a merc technician he knows nothing about tuning cars at all

safc is just an apexi gizmo that intercepts the AFM signal to tell the ecu to add more fuel at giver RPM points
no need to chip or set up it has an AFM so it will just supply the right amount of fuel for the given boost up the the max air flo of the AFM (around 270-280) brake. The standard map is fine for this. Obviously the closer you are to this the more you need to make sure all the fuling components are up to the job, fuel pump etc.
here is some pics of my S-AFC (about 6 years old though so things may have moved on) You can also fine tine more with a power FC.
if i were your mate i'd leave it at a bar and lose all the weight in the car, also leave the top mount in for hill climb and keep the rims to 15" max.
is the cam a 272? is he going for the 1.2mm HG?

So with a SAFC is that all he needs no matter how far he decides to go with the car or is there a point when the car will need to be remapped proeprly
Thanks for the help

I think you lot are being unduly harsh on Carl.
He takes quite a lot of medication to keep his "unique personality" in check, and its clear that the doseage has recently been altered.
Please don't take the piss out of the special people - they still have a place in our society!

bascially the limiting factor on the car is teh airflow meter, he need to pic a bhp level then he can decide on spec eg to get more than 300 he needs to source a z32 afm, and then use a power fc which is basically going to allow him to tailor the map to make use of the new components.
bascialy stage 1 if you like is filter exhaust boost
stage 2 is same but 1.2 bar but youre best off sorting out the pistons really and going to the bigger AFM (or different management of cours)e)
the engines do 500 brake all standard on HKS 3037'sin the states I think they just uprate the pistons and thats it for the most part.
The GTI R have better engines then the rest of teh SR20 range ( bar the turbo and a few other is better on the s15's)

I think it was running stg1 when it melted , but it only had a boost controller but no safc so would that be why it melted on a long motorway race

I didn't realise GTIR psitons were so weak,
Alot of people are running 350 bhp+ with a standard bottom end using 'weaker' SR20 in S14's.
One of my friends is running about 450bhp with a standard bottom end (bar a uprated head gasket).
Z32 afms are good for around 500 bhp.

it shouldnt have melted with 1bar even with no fuel comp (just a bit of extra safety at 1.2 bar) my best guess is the 18 year old fuel pump (and wiring)

In my experience its the lands that are actually the weak part, most of the failures i have see its just the land that brakes and then the ring is fucked. infact they still run but just run into an oil pump lol
I guess its alot to do with how much det they have seen in the past really.

A genuine 300bhp Pulsar is an absolute weapon I would be very surprised indeed if you could keep level. Was the 300bhp recorded on an arse dyno or a proper one?

Well, having owned a 280bhp Pulsar, and having driven 335d's practically every week, if not every day for nearly 2 years when i worked for BMW, even though the 335's are fantastic cars, there is no way they would out run a pulsar.... whether it be from stand still or 60mph rolling.....
and he kills F40's so whats a lil datsun gots on him?Fucking hell dude it only took a few posts till you did it again, the beemer killing fast cars has to get mentioned!
at first i thought you were a genius who had a million different approaches of telling everyone how fast your diesel is but now its becoming clear your just a bored kid

missed something??? i thought this guy was a joke on passionford only, the guy is known as a twat on Pistoheads too
if your ever cruising the pistonheads forums you may see alot of users making odd remarks about "chipped 335d's" i never knew it was coz of this dude till he got exposed on here about it.
moral of the story... you've missed alot

Just bought this, it needs some better injectors and remap for up to 400, then when the turbo pops gt3076 time
Running a new engine with eagle rods, forged pistons, arp bolts,gt28 rb, hks head gasket etc etc, i love it, more than any cosworth i have owned.
Not a bad spec car for just over 3k eh

If i were you i'd be calling Matt @ The Racing Line in Halifax, he mapped my Evo and my mates Pulsar GTiR which was running standard management with a daughter board, done a great job, very nice bloke too.
Evo injectors would be a cheap upgrade to your standard ones, and would be just about enough for 400bhp.
