OK so im running at about 345rwhp and my spec is
Boost Controller running at 1.2 bar,
2 Row FMIC
Double Decat and Blitz Exhaust
HKS Induction
Uprated plugs and fuel pump.

What do i do know to up the power without going single or hybrid?? I know ideally i should get an OE Airfilter etc.... but is there anything else on the cards for me to do?? What about sticking some UK injectors in and running a SAFC or Emanager??

Nitrous ?

I guess the 550's would be worth it, to stop you maxxing out your duty cycle when on full boost - and at least you'd have the injectors so when you do go SINGLE

J, cams, plus 550cc injectors and emanage ultimate, this will give you better mid to top end power.

Well i've already got a set of 880's ready for my single install so i'd only be getting them to satisfy my need for speed until then :D I could go down the nitrous route. this will also be something i can use with the single so may look into that when i get to work tonight.
I am tempted Wayne but i don't want to have the worry of higher EGT. But again they'd only be to tied me over till Dec/Jan.

Nic, what do you think, UK spec cams, both new upgraded ones or is it the exhaust cam that adds more hp for the money??

F**k me! - How much power are you after?!?!? :
Well i got them for a damn good price of Supraforums and they seemed a good idea at the time :p I think to start with i'd like to aim for 6/700bhp and then later if i get out of debit after putting all my money into the car i'd like to go even bigger :D
maybe i should just sell them and get some smaller ones, oh i don't know, i'm so confussed!!! :blink:

No there's the other problem Ro, i just can't decide. i think i HAD decided on a T67 but i just don't know anymore.

James, you're more than welcome to take my car for a spin. It might help you decide ;)

HKS or JUN 256in and 264ex or Crower stage 1 cams (use the stock cam wheels).

Lightweight accessory pulleys :rolleyes:

Cams will make a difference at the top end with hybrids, seem to help with stockers as well - Smarty's car was strong with a pair of 264's in.

Nitrous may have less of an effect than you think, as the turbo housings and manifold are the big restriction - trying to shovel even more exhaust gas through them with nitrous will be an exercise in futility :( Of course with a wider exhaust cam it'll be better ;)

Matt i may well take you up on that offer :D

So i could possibly go with just the exhuast cam and a small dose of nitrous to squeeze a bit more out :).

You are more than welcome. In fact I insist :) Fancy a day out near one of the UK crummiest seaside resorts ;)

Would it be worth while to add 550's and a SAFC2 to bpu++ (or whatever you kids are calling it nowadays??) :D

They've only started building it since you started using it!!! :p

Bloody schools start earlier this year! :yawn: :innocent:

IMHO I can't see the point. It's a fair bit of hastle and extra expense if you intend to use bigger injectors soon.
If you really want to change something, the cams are the best bet. At least they will still be worthwhile once the single is on there.
