Normally peeps put an induction kit and dump vavle on without remap. This causes the boost to go over max permited boost in ECU. So th ECU cuts the boost back even lower. Hence less power. Early days used to fit restrictors in boost solenoid pipes to slow operation.
The standard induction box is good up to 420bhp.
may worth investing in a 3port valve. speak to JGM has more knowledge than me.

£36.74.I did originally buy some proper c-f inserts that you had to stick in place with some pva black sticky stuff-absolute nightmare and looked gash.
Was a bit unsure of the 3M stickers as they were, well stickers!
Pleasantly suprised,looked good and filled the space nicely
