erm, theres not much more you can do without spending a lot of money on upgrading your turbo.

you could perhaps get a custom remap and possibly squeeze a little more out of your cars potential?

Sounds like you done a pretty decent job with it already. Like Marky said, withouth spending lots more you wont get that much.

If you do go for more, remember to add some more stopping power to your list.
