I've recently got hold of a 99 Stationwagon fitted with the PPP and the Prodrive Suspension Pack.

Now I'm already thinking more more more more more.

So, what is the next best move after PPP? The thing I love about the PPP is the huge increase in the Torque, what can compliment this? Maybe getting the bhp up a little too?

Thanks all!

Tricky to keep the surge of torque at the point in the rev range that it is now AND get more bhp. The TD04 turbo is quite small so you get the torque surge low down but as it is small it runs out of puff sooner than the big boys. Hybrid turbos are made to try and bridge that gap - see Andy Forrest's web site. Alternatively you will have to have a bigger turbo that gives you big surge and more bhp but does it 1000 rpm up the rev range.

Thought as much, I quite like the idea of all this torque and don't want to screw the torque curve that it's got, although as you correctly state, you can feel it tail off higher up the rev range.

Just out of interest was does the PPP ecu up the boost, if so, to what?

Hi you will get about 1.1bar on PPP on a MY99, but it's the torque that has a better spread, it may be worthwhile getting your headers ported and changing the uppipe this helps to.
Try and avoid large internal diameter up-pipes though, as this will kill spool up on the TD04
