just got a gti 150 99reg - small mod tips
« on: 18 October 2014, 00:06 »
First post here , just want a bit of advice of safe mods for more bhp. What kimd of improvement would I see from a decat and remap? What other cheap mods I can do for a bit more power? 98k on clock if that matters.

I would change the turbo to K03s if i was you, it's a bolt on upgrade and you'll see a much larger power gain than putting a decat and other small mods on.

I would also put the forge 007p recirc valve on for reliability too
