what is the easiest way to gain a little more bhp for not massive costs on a v8 sti (ppp).

All depends how much more you after, have been there done it, ended up with a 420 bhp monster.

Would probably start with cold air induction & better flowing exhaust (decat)

ive been told this is a mine field at the mo it is the prodrive with the high flo cat if this is replaced with a decat does it have to be re-mapped i was thinking of getting stainless manifold headers ?

My tuner's advice was that headers mean a big re-map job, and to do a bigger turbo at the same time ! ( headers need ceramic coating if you're keeping the car, blanket if not {ONLY LASTS 18 MONTHS}).

Power costs money, how fast yer wana spend it ?

I'm aiming for 400-ish (bhp), after that you need bigger injectors. Or nitrous to get more fuel in !!!

rite stay clear of that then! trouble is funds are not easy to come by perhaps il just go for a remap and gain a little from that i guess it should be about a 20-30 bhp gain? leave the rest until i have more cash floating about.
