Ive got a VF43 on my hawkeye with downpipe decat, Sti intercooler etc... and she is running 350bhp as an everyday driver for my wife

The change of turbo and remap changes the cars characteristics 100% all I would say is the poor gearbox handles it but you do need to treat it nice otherwise its about £2k for a 6 speed.....

Thanks

Your laughing then....

the only other thing I would say is keep an eye on the oil and water.....

As as I have read many places running more boost can cause Ringland issues on the 2.5...

Ps was it easy to change the gearbox rear diff etc...? As i am on the market looking for a 6 spd
