Post by: golfvr6 on 20 February 2004, 00:14: The general rule is about 10% with filter and free flow exhaust, this can obviously vary slightly.

Post by: Dizzie on 20 February 2004, 00:16: I'd spend the money on a 4 branch manifold myself and drill the air box. Might have enough left over for a back box then.

Post by: Cupra Turbo on 21 February 2004, 21:49: Well if I can get upto 127Bhp it will it will give me about 115Bhp per tonne.. as opposed to 104Bhp per tonne.

Post by: Jimbobsbig.69 on 22 February 2004, 20:12: Cone filter, super chip, cat bypass and an exhaust.
That should give you about 10bhp but the cat bypass will free her up a bit. I'm in the process of sorting one at the mo i'll let you know. ;)

Post by: golfvr6 on 22 February 2004, 22:36: I think you would get more than 10bhp for doing those mods, even on an 8v.
Filter and exhaust alone will give you that.
