Posted in drivetrain but no response yet

I have an MY97 with just under 90k on the clock. After it's had it 90k service I'm thinking of a few tweeks. Here's what I'm considering:

ITG Filter.
Full decat s/s exhuast.
Forge VTA d/v.
Dawes with an AFR and Knocklink.

Would this be OK on a 90k engine and what sort of boost would be safe with the Dawes? If so what sort of power figures can I expect?

Thanks.

I think you're best off talking to a specialist with a good reputation to be honest. My engine went at 50k with FsSH so I'd be doing everything to safeguard it.

Knocklink and an oil cooler ?

I think if it's gonna go, it's gonna go.

104k miles

Full decat,
ITG Filter
Remapped for 1 bar

Oil change at half service intervals (every 3750)

And I only put a full synthetic 15/50 oil in.
