What mods next before hybrid and remap
 
what mod should i do next,as getting a td04 hybrid and remap will be the last ones
mods i have now=
full decat 2.5"
k&n induction kit
cold air feed
psi3
front mount intercooler
walbro pump
baileys dump valve
oil cooler (auto/triptronic box)
is it worth modding the turbo up pipe and headers,injectors,etc
wanting to get most power i can without any internal work and want it to be reliable everyday car,
my car is a 2001 import bugeye triptronic
hoping for 350bhp:norty:

I have a TD04 hybrid.

It's an excellent, super responsive, low spooling turbo, which I'd thoroughly recommend. But you won't get 350bhp from it. More likely 300 to 320bhp.

If you are happy with less than 320bhp but with the above positives, then stick with the TD04H - you won't need new injectors or headers, but should fit a fuel pump and an STi intecooler and undertray (instead of the FMIC at this level) are worth while. And yes, you should get a decat up pipe if you dopn't already.

To get a genuine 350bhp you'd need something like a TD05 18G (and perhaps a new gearbox at some stage !). However, a better alternative if you want about that amount of power (nearer 330 to 340bhp), would be a VF35, which has good spool and responsiveness. You would then have to think of getting the STi injectors though and sorted headers.

Choices, choices !

would say the same, vf35 or a vf34 should see near that

What he said! 320-330 bhp much easier and safer on the the gearbox.

If you just want a solid and very quick spooling 300, go with the TD04 hybrid, if you want 320+ go with the VF35.

All IMHO

We 're all in agreement then, eh lads ?! :D ;)

will be sticking with me FMIC as i have just fitted it,so am i right in saying go for a tdo4 hybrid as this will spool up faster and prevent turbo lag compared with a vf35,should i still replace the turbo up pipe whilst i am on changing turbo
(already has full decat and walbro pump):thumb:

what do you mean by the turbo up pipe kid:wonder:
youve already decatted it, so do you mean the headers?
as for injecters, if youve got the money go for it you can always do more mods later and they will come in handy:norty:

there is a short pipe between headers and turbo i think (correct me if am wrong)
looking like a will have to live with 300-320bhp,ya never no wants this ones had all the mods a may buy a classic with a blown engine and go the full hog a built a track/drag scoob:norty:
