Why do we modify!
Evening all.
Just fitting my new vf35 when I come across a split turbo to air box hose.
What a pain to remove the whole lot of the inlet manifold off just to get to it along with the alternator air con etc.
So now I need inlet gaskets a new air box to turbo hose and is it worth putting some different injectors in?
Any other jobs to consider its this stripped.
Thanks

I would suggest as above Painting(powdercoating the inlet manifold) and about the injectors,would say yes you will need 550's(STi pink injectors)

As above what car do you have?
New age or Classic?
If it new age you would need them,but if you have classic your 440's should be OK with FPR for your VF35
Hope this help

In this case if you have 440's you should be OK with them for about the 320-340bhp,maybe little less
With FPR you can extract little bit more,
Do you have any other mods such as ported headers with Up pipe ?

keep the 440's and you don't need a fpr according to Bob as I was considering one as well
