JDM STI Hatch Advise
Need some help,
I've imported a 2008 JDM hatch originally was to sell but after driving it i really can't sell so have decied to sell my 62 plate Merc and run hatch has an everyday car.
Tricky part is its completely standard so i need advise on were to start and recommend any decent tuners in Manchester area
First want to start with Exhaust and Mapping/ fuel mapping etc
Also will be ordering some wheels either bronze Rays CE28n or TE37sl in black not sure on size 18 or 19 been told 19 will affect drive.
Nice subtle dump valves, anything else ?

Cams at Darwen, prosport at Stockport or tegsport are all reputable and in your area. If you want to venture to the right side of the Pennines then I'd say Richard Henry at Bradford. 
Wheel wise I'd stick with 18s as 19s will compromise ride and handling. Dump valve wise stick to the original recirc.

These are rare cars in the UK...... don't **** it up! 
Miltek Exhaust
Uprated panel filter
EcuTEK RACEROM remap
This will get you around 350bhp.
Leave everything else on the engine STANDARD!

I can't say who is best.... I haven't tried them all.
The fitment of the parts is easy..... it's the mapping that needs the expert. Personally I'd use Tracktive Solutions or Bob Rawle for EcuTEK stuff (which is from personal experience).
