Hi all, in my MY99 I have a full decat, K&N Air filter and dawes device, pumping out around 250bhp Id say.
My wish is to get it over 300bhp, so I would appreciate any recommendations on what the next step would be - ECUTek3 I assume, then what?
Any help most appreciated!

The Tek3 should safely get it to 280bhp, anymore that that and you need to start changing things, ie:- bigger turbo, front mounted intercooler etc.

It's a manual boost control device.
Up the boost = up the power/torque
up it too much = bang!

Up it too much and you get fuel cut! You only want to experience that once! The fuel cut avoids the bang
