Looking at your pics, you dont run a FMIC, and your scoop is reveresed. So is your car a sport?

I always thought it was a turbo?

Dunno about boiled, depending on mods it will just rip all the boost and timing from the map and the car will drive with no guts at all.

Id keep the look and go FMIC. Hybrids are cheap as chips and work really well.

There are some FMIC on trader announcements they are GT spec.
Are they any good. If they are I think I will get one.

I really like this car....

Only think I would change would be replace the rear spoiler for a carbon ST6 item ....

Great work!!!

I especially like the rear bumper... wonder if it could be done to match the RA?

Yes mate the Hybrid GT specs are a good buy for the money. The pipework isnt amazing but the core is good quality and efficient. IMO the APS will have little or no advantage over the Hybrid except a cleaner more finished fitment. If thats worth the extra cash to you then go ahead, you wont be disappointed.

As already said, you will ideally need you map altered to suit, id recomend an adjustable fuel pressure regulator at the same time as it would be nice to get the most from your fueling system with the extra boost you will now be able to run.

I'm not worried about running any extra boost. How much is a remap and where can I get a adjustable fuel pressure regulator. I'm not worried about the pipes either I will wrap them.

Nice and shiney.

I like the overall look of that actually. Much better without the stickers.
