Deffo a 76mm intake, I run a FP Green turbo with 76 mm inlet on my Bug STi. With mods it showed 440 bhp on Scoobyclinic rolling road, the engine internally is standard and has covered 110K miles which I can confirm as I bought the car new.

The V is a 500bhp turbo, the mdx321T would be better suited to your goal and would make for an awesome point to point car on a 2.5 engine

I run the FP red , I use there own FP 84mm intake , there turbos are great value for money I think ,, good to find another person using a FP turbo as there doesn't seem to be many in the uk
