Default Which road now folks ?

HI all, right here is one for you.
I have a 2004 sti ppp, it has got 3" decat set of ported/wrapped headers and flow matched up and kn filter and has been mapped by mr rawle it achieved just shy of 350 bhp. i now want to take it as close to 400 as poss. im looking at a new turbo but which bloody one, i will also at the same time do the injectors and i will probably need to get some sort of induction sorted, i hear the rcm is v good. So there it is which one to get me as close to that mark. md321h ?
Please no one mention that i will need to get fmic because i dont and i wont.
thanks all......

The standard induction is good for over 400bhp (ie panel filter), then your looking at injectors, uprated fuel pump, and the md321h is a good choice plus no need to go fmic as the tmic is also good for over 400bhp

321h / 20g / FP. Injectors. (Possibly a new clutch). The APS CAIK is a good alternative to RCM induction kit.

You could also consider a E85 / methanol mix for over 400.

Some of the 321h boys running funny fuel are pushing 420-440 with about 380lb.

I preferred the quicker spool and faster road car manners of the 18g, that with a funny fuel mix got me quite close to 400. It's quite a ballistic/brutal package.

Whatever route you choose, post up some prices and comments for the masses to read up on.

Sorry for the thread hi-jack, I am in a similar situation at the mo, have already decided on a 321h and E85 mix with appropriate injectors and map tweek. I know the top mount and induction are good for 400ish, but it is still worth investing in a front mount and CAIK anywyas?
