Hawkeye's look the best of the Newage cars imo, and of course are even more special if they have that cracking JDM 2ltr engine in them.
I'll join the party!

Turbo (LM450)
800cc Injectors
FMIC
Big Maf Induction Kit
3" Miltek
Remap on standard ECU
The figures you see in my profile are based on a 20% Methanol mix. I've just recently reverted back to straight VPower, which provides 440/440.

F1 Fan,
Because I'm a chav innit.
wrx Scooby wrx,
It's the most cost effective mod route to do if you have a JDM 2ltr. An extra 100+ of each makes it one seriously rapid car. If you run meth on top you'll be talking 150+. Both of these increases are assuming you're starting off with a remapped JDM already, with 340/340.
If you have a good base engine to begin with, they are so strong and reliable.
On my normal VPower map (what I'm currently running), I can switch between 360 and 440. 360 is lethargic in comparison to the 440 map, and 360bhp isn't exactly slow.
I've never performance timed the methanol set-up, but the 340bhp -> 440bhp saw the following performance in-gear (4th gear) acceleration figures:
VF set-up running 340/340
40 - 60mph = 2.6s
50 - 70mph = 2.5s
60 - 80mph = 2.6s
70 - 90mph = 2.9s
80 -100mph = 3.6s
40 -100mph = 8.8s
LM450 Billet running 440/440
40 - 60mph = 2.3s
50 - 70mph = 1.9s
60 - 80mph = 1.8s
70 - 90mph = 2.0s
80 -100mph = 2.3s
40 -100mph = 6.4s
These figures are with the car fully fuelled up.

If I'm honest i thought that buying a cheaper uk hawk and spending the difference plus a few grand more would leave you with a forged 2.5 with good power, something a jdm hawk couldn't match unless another 3/4k over the uk hawk once modded.
I'd not realised how few mods it would take, very impressive.

Assuming you had an exhaust already fitted and you only had to pay for mapping time, as opposed to any licenses, I think you'd be looking at around £3300 inc vat + fitting.

Thanks. Reason I ask is that I will be looking to upgrade from my bugeye wagon soon, and I do like the look of the hawk, but am put-off by the shortcomings of the 2.5ltr engine.

Yes... the cylinders are thick walled and the rods and pistons take much more power. If mapped by someone who really knows what they are doing, the reliable power outputs that can be attained, are far in excess of the OEM 2.5 lump.
The advantage of the JDM set-up over a UK 2ltr is with the torque (the torque that mine achieves is pretty special for a 2ltr).
As a package it's pretty over engineered in respect of what it's capable of.
Whilst I know people who have ran 450bhp on this set-up for track / competition use (hard) and had no problems, I personally wouldn't. I'd stick to around 400bhp for hard abusive use. However, for road use it's all good..... as myself and many others have seen.

Orite lads! lovely cars by the way I also have a jdm hawk T20. Im looking to get mine mapped pretty soon, its got the 3" miltek exhaust with sport cat ect.
My question is with just a simple remap I should be looking at around 345/350 ish but would you guys recommend decating? that should see around 370ish is it worth it?
cheers greg
