With a standard 08 (230hp) you can go to 300-310hp with the IHI VF52 turbo, EMS downpipe and Ecutek. Planning to do this one mine

Im presuming then even though ive got a prodrive exhaust a Miltek or something would enhance it even more ?

I did have a msg from Lichfields a while ago where Iain said the 5 speed box wasnt very strong so wouldnt advise it.

But im also doing research into what your planning, looking for 350 ish if poss, dont want it for tracks etc, just that inital spanking at the lights etc

My setup was with a non standard exhaust. But with the turbo, exhaust and downpipe you could get 300-310! If you mount a bigger intercooler etc I think you'll get to your 350 without to much hassle!

I'm going to change the handling first on mine (want it a bit firmer like the STI, but don't know what I should get etc..)

Let me know what you're upto, pretty interesting for me ;-)
