I had an MY02 Bug eyed without the PPP and it was very disapointing, then had a P1, total different kettle of fish, but want more than the P1 as I got used to that within days.
Does it cost alot to get them to 350-360?

- performance exhuast decat which can cost from £200 second hand to 1k new, brand dependent
- Possibly induction or panel filter from £30 to £400
- Fuel Pump- Safety measure £100
- Some aftermarket ECU or EcuTek £500-£1k+
- Boost controller - added option £50-£500
- Plugs- £50
Should help you see 350hp with a helthly safety margin

I don't think the VF35 will do much more than 330bhp. you're pushing the limits then before it starts to blow hot air.

sorry to hijack the thread but....
rather than go for ppp, what power is available for 02sti in standard form if a
decat zorst, panel filter and remap are carried out.... more than ppp ?

Just looked at there website do you realise what your get for you £2800 
A full exh system, Intercooler,induction kit and Ecutek.
What I would pay
Exh - 600
Intercooler - no need, cars have made 400bhp with an STI7 intercooler
Induction kit - no need, Panel filter 50quid at the very most
Ecutek remap - £600
I'm not saying anything else but I also don't believe a VF35 at anything like sensible boost and mapping can flow enough for 350bhp.

The person starting the thread said he had PPP so it's £1595 for the upgrade not nearly £3000. Thats with remap, induction kit, Intercooler and the labour.

Now I'm confused...
Some say that the std VF35 can only safely manage 320-330hp. How can some achieve 350hp and still be reliable?
What happens to a turbo that is pushed too far, meltdown?

Cost wise just a bit more than the 500.00 that you suggested

Do they map the ecu to stop the boost dropping off when revs increase, i have noticed the boost dropping off with the ppp. Could this be why your torque is the same?
