A little update which requires recommendations if possible

To make the car a little for fun to drive and tiny power increase I am leaning towards getting xForce TBE, process west CAI, Grimmspeed 3-port bcs and a tune.

As I won't need more power just yet, parts like bigger intercooler, injectors, fuel pump won't be upgraded untill next year or two as I'd like to put that money into new suspension and new wheels setup.

Really want to see critiques on this approach.

Thanks in advance:thumbup:

TBE and 3port plus a tune are a great start and will do a lot to give your car some new kick.

I wouldn't personally bother with the CAI unless you're set on having the sound. Minimal gains at that power level the stock box will be fine.

Process west uses wet type filter, it will affect MAF sensor overtime. Get a AEM CAI if u want

TBE and tune alone will give you surprising power/torque increases, more than a 'tiny' amount that's for sure. Not to mention the added acoustical awesomeness, you will certainly be smiling more!

I can just ditch the CAI altogether and buy some cosmetics. Seeing as I don't need that extra HP right. But the sound process west CAI produces is mmmmmm. Does the AEM CAI produce the same result?

Its louder actually, bit its inlet hose made the most difference, I can take u for a drive if u want.

I can also show u the duno graph proving CAI has .05 bar less flow resistance than stock airbox but at end of the day, its the tuner makes the most difference.

I'm thinking your duno graph is pretty big and probably hasn't peaked yet.

If you want the turbo noise from the intake just do an intake silencer delete mod. Google it. And spend the money you save on cocaine and strippers.

Ok I am stripping the CAI off the list altogether. How about new spark plugs and fuel pump to go with the exhaust and tune? Or will those can should wait too?

New fuel pump is a good idea. No need to do your spark plugs unless they are worn.
