I did qualify it with "..for a while"

Want a bit more power out of it, maybe just tbe and tune, but I think ill wait a bit longer through the warranty period before I mess with that stuff.

Wow 6months since my last update.

Well I got a decent amp in the car 4 or so months ago, just powering the stock speakers (which sound ok with some power behind them) with a cheap sub in the boot. Need to work out what sort of sub i want that doesnt take up too much room in the hatch.

Also installed a kartboy short shifter and front/rear shifter bushings, which feel much nicer. Easier to slot into gear now.

Been collecting a few parts from the US over the past few months too, finally got them installed today and got the car tuned.

Turbo XS catted down pipe (so now have full TurboXS TBE)
Process West TMIC (courtesy of HuggyB)
Cobb 3-port boost control solenoid
DeatschWerks fuel pump

Car made 270hp and 408Nm at the wheels. Car had some issues with the airbox being restricted, but overall pretty happy. Feels so much nicer to drive, bum dyno is happy!





Will be leaving the car as is for a while!

Airbox being restrictive? I'd say all those bends and the turbo intake part of the pipe would be the restriction. The airbox and the intake seem to be fairly efficient from all reports I've read.
