Worth every penny !!!
The car will be transformed.

Some fresh oil, oil filter and a set of plugs is a good idea too chap.

I'd also give Alyn at AS performance a call, he often offers great prices and superb customer support.

VF30 turbo on your car I believe. Regarded by many as the best all round VF turbo.

Power wise, with Paul mapping it the skies the limit....... the man is fantastic !!
In all seriousness im not sure what a 30 could make, id think somewhere around the 340 mark but im sure someone will be along to give a better idea.
