i have my car booked in for a power run to see how everything is going on the 7th october i am looking for a mod to do before this date to get a bit extra power, it will have to be something on the cheap side(not as expensive as a remap). i currently have:-
full decat turbo back exhaust3"
kn panel filter with drilled resonator box
iriduim plugs
walbro fuel pump
oil catch tank
hks dump valve
sti8 top mount intercooler

any idea on what mod i could do without remaping and could give me some extra bhp safely.

any help appreciated

Honestly though, seems like you've done everything you can without having a remap (and spending £££'s)

what do you think of a turbo up pipe

The ECU will be running stock fuelling, Ignition and boost for 240BHP. Adding octane booster won't do much as the ECU doesn't know it's there, although it might cut down on det a bit if the intake temps get very high on the rollers. In any case the Bugeye ECU starts to cut boost at high intake temps over 40 degrees to protect the engine.

It might make 260 BHP but by then the TD04 is simply running out of air flow.

Again adding a de-cat up pipe might lower the spool point a little but the small TD04 is pretty good at low down spool.

Any higher BHP needs a turbo change and re-map. Plenty of tough TD05 front entry used turbo's out there which should see you into 300 BHP territory
