No need to spend that amount on an exhaust for just an ecutek remap!

Mate that is crazy money for the level of power you are after! I have a blitz nur spec on my blobeye with a decat and it made 355 bhp. Now although this is on a two litre the system on mine would have been a fraction of the amount you have mentioned.

Speak to Harvey on here or which ever mapper / tuner you are planning on using to see what they advise.

I would go with a sports cat or decat, harvey up pipe, fuel pump and panel filter and then a remap.

Holly mother of god,Perrin is expensive bit of kit,if its worth these money,simply NO

Just for info:

DP:£160-£220
Center Pipe:£80-£150
Backbox: £160-£500

Headers:GT Spec from £445-£600

Up pipe i would suggest Harvey Up pipe,but my feeling you don't need Headers if you are want under 400bhp,headers are recommended if you are going for more than 400bhp+

a 2.5" system is fine for 375 bhp and so are the standard headers.

So all you need is harvey's up pipe £139
Decat downpipe £150 -£220
Ecutek remap iirc £550

That's near enough £1500 less.

Although it's not essential, there are gains to be had from getting your headers ported by harvey.
