My bad I meant I have 3" inch from turbo back. Not cat back.
Realistically is there anyway of pushing beyond 230bhp with these mods using a K03s and Silicone TIP using my current mods?
1.6-1.8t AGU K03s, Forge actuator, Forge 007p, turbo back exhuast, Ths front mount, Catch can, 5 piece silicone boost pipes and creation sports tip. Stage 2 atm 232bhp 270lbs. Waiting for custom mapping :-)

I may stick with my original idea then for now.
Stage 2 K03s, Still not bad from a 1.6 engine  :evil:
