What els can I do?
« on: 12 December 2012, 21:11 »
Evening people:)
I have recently bought a 18t gti and I want more power:)
What other engine mods can I do to gain more bhp without getting a bigger turbo? This is what I have already.
Forge 007dv , silicone hoses, 3"straight through was told it has been mapped and was 200+ bhp but have no evidence of this.
I am new to the turbo scene so havnt really got a clue tbh. Also havnt got £1000s of pounds to spend. Any advice will be much appreciated. Thanks.

My spec on my auq 180 is:

K03s
Toyosports fmic 2.5" pipework
Forge actuator
Forge tip
Forge 007p
Toyosports cai
Devils own water methanol Injection kit

Remaped my niki at r-tech running in the 240bhp but going back very shortly as they have been testing new mapping software? To unleash 250-260bhp, 270+lbft out of k03s :cool:

I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

i emailed them about that and it seems more is required than the basic mods ie fmic,turbo back,007p etc there more required to be able to get the 250+ figure. well from what i could gather from the email i got.
