bungy Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 With a tt and cash but a wallet tighter than a nun's chuff, I was hoping to tap into the knowledge available to see what mods to do in what order and best products for results. The car has an induction kit and standard exhaust including cats. Where do I start on the hunt for BHP. I look forward to your replies and will post results as I complete each stage. I would like a solid but safe 400 as a target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 If you are overweight a diet that shifts poundage will help your car accelerate faster. You could also install a search button that recognise the term BPU. That's a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungy Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 Thats alright if you understand the term bpu but there are some of us new to soops, was kind of hoping for someone helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Lightweight wheels Stock airbox back on BPU That would make a massive difference, tubby 2 in particular and even more responsive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bungy Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 Thanks for the positive and i'll check out BPU. The induction kit was on when I bought the car. Would it be beneficial to source a standard air box to go back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Yes For BPU you'll be looking at: Double decat Uprated fuel Pump Free flowing cat back exhaust Colder Plugs FCD Boost Gauge Restrictor ring (if J-spec) max 1.2bar With all that you'll be looking at around 380bhp at the flywheel. If you want more then you'll be looking for : Uprated FPR Bigger Injectors Fuel management Hairier cams FMIC co2/water spray The list goes on, and once of the slippery slope you'll find it hard to get off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Walker Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Thats alright if you understand the term bpu but there are some of us new to soops, was kind of hoping for someone helpful. Excuse Martin, he's a trained newbie killer As C1 says: Double decat Uprated fuel Pump Free flowing cat back exhaust Colder Plugs FCD Boost Gauge Restrictor ring (if J-spec) max 1.2bar Stock Air Box with TRD Panel Filter or decent induction kit. For example HKS = Rubbish, Apexi or Power Enterprise = much better That will certainly do nicely. Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Yes stock airbox back on! Not so many on here rate induction kits on the TT for performance! With it well deducted i don't think its worse performance........its more a question of poor filtration and the long term effects on the engine (particularly the turbos). Ie the possible small gain from having a aftermarket induction kit is outweighed by the possible problems....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkey Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Use the search to button to find out how to put people on 'ignore'. See? Helpful to a fault. Crikey mate! Yes, the question of "How can I mod my Supra to make it go faster ?" comes up alot. And yes, the answer for a TT - is nearly always BPU. And yes, nearly everything you might want to know is found with the search button. But - as a trader on this forum for the good the members .. might be a good idea to remember that next a newbie posts up a question. Now, ease off abit eh ?

Clarkey Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I must be getting mixed up with the someone else that works for Martin (Lucifer) ... I know he recruited a girl called Kate. But I thought someone else on this board works for him (Lucifier - that is.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
