The max the car can do with standard turbo is 280bhp provinding you have the following mods:-
Full de cat exhaust (won't pass mot but we all know a garage who will let it pass)
uprated panel filter
remap/map tweak

But just remeber when the power bug bites and have no dout that it won't because it will you need to start looking at upgrading other parts.

Your car is only as fast as your weakist componant. In this case its the turbo.

Get used to the car and there aren't many cars that are faster that you will see on a day to day basis if that thing rocks your boat lol.

My Subaru is plenty fast but I wouldn't dare go up against H or some of the other in house big timers.

There was an offer on here you could get winglets and lip have a look at JM Carbon. Oh and if you are fitting a STI spolier you might want to look into changing your boot lid as well. The reason for this is that you need extra holes for the spoiler and it really isn't worth adding them to your existing one. Also the tensioners are different. Its a lot safer with the different spoiler.

But ad you and I both know there are some people in our club you including have more BHP then me and are more experienced in cars. Some of you could tell me the compound respring rate of tyres lol

I would like to think of myself as a driver and not the latter lol.

Ad were you at the last meet. Did we even meet each other. I'm trying to figure out who you are put a face to a name kind of thing.
