Question

Can any of you 'brainy' people out there tell me what difference the PPP changes have made? I know I have a new ECU, part exhaust and intercooler piping, but where does all the power/torque come from, technically? More turbo boost? Just better air flow, or what?

Sorry if this is a fairly general question but I am very keen to learn more.

More boost, more advance, less fuel, and some breathing mods.

...and a less restrictive centre section and back box (Exhaust).

John,

Just re-read your post and assume (now) that "Breathing Mods" means exhaust as opposed to the IC piping - duh!!!

Cool

Thanks for the info.

One final question - does a PPP have any impact on the car's long-term reliability? Will parts start to fail earlier due to the increased stress or is the PPP upgrade still within the standard capabilities of the engine?
