I'm looking to get around 210kw with the following mods:
VF34 Turbo
565cc Injectors
Walbro 255 fuel pump
3 inch turboback exhaust
Process West top mount intercooler
and possibly a process west cold air intake - maximum motor advised against this.
I will add a GFB BOV.

Could you guys advise firstly if 200-210KW is realistic and who to use in Perth, being from Bunbury.

Secondly, have I missed out other important items for preventative reasons, like Grimmspeed air-oil separator.

I've been advised $1650 for a tune with ECU licence. I'm looking for feed back good or bad.

Thanks heaps guys.
Forget the BOV...factory is best. Also maybe try and source a second hand STI TMIC which may be a cheaper option. CAI is OK but will just improve throttle response.
You will struggle to get over 200 KW ATW....190 is a more realistic figure.
BTW I have a set of 1000cc top feed injectors for sale @ $400.
As Neil said above, and if you haven't purchased the car yet, the STI is a much better option.

Good luck.............
