I have a friend with a GT4 (ST205). It is completely standard apart from a Superchip
.
He was thinking along the lines of an induction kit as his next purchase. Would he be better off buying a new exhaust system first etc, etc?
Any advice I could pass on would be appreciated.
I have had the bumpsteer removed and the geometry sorted by Powerstation on my Scooby with excellent results - do Powerstation or anyone remove bs on the Celica or anyone recommended to sort the geometry?

As with any car, removing the breathing restrictions is a good place to start.
I'd say the exhaust would release more power if changed than a free-flow filter.
What year is it ?
Upgrading the IC will help as well.
I think Fensport deal with Toyota mods

Ian - thanks mate. The owner does go on that site from time to time. I just offered to ask on Scoobynet as it is (I would have thought) a lot more active, if not quite so specialised.

Call Fensport about any GT4 issues 01354 696973. I had a GT4 ST205 and had the following mods :-
1. Hybrid turbo
2. Blitz induction kit
3. Blitz boost controller
4. Mongoose system
5. WI
6. Unichip
7. Aussie DP
With the above I was pushing out 350 bhp. Give the guys a call they can help you.
Regards

My best mate has the ST185 GT4, and we found www.fensport.com, a very good site for all types of Toyotas. You can find anything in there. Go and check it out.

Hi 7 Foot,
He'll be better off just changing the panel filter to a TRD one, us 205'ers have a pretty hot engine bay and cone/mushroom filters seem to suffer
...although I think a few guys have fabricated airflow boxes, which helps 
He'd probably get more benefit from changing the downpipe/exhaust, the downpipe seems to be pretty restrictive & is pretty cheap to replace (abou £250 from Aus IIRC) exhaust wise you have the usual suspects Blitz/HKS etc and also Hayward & Scott, but flavour of the month seems to be Tube Torque (http://www.tubetorque.co.uk/) who have done stuff for TTE (Team Toyota Europe) and are proving to be pretty popular
Hope this helps, but if not- get him over here-
