Just get the F6 CAI it's a cheap mod.You don't need to do a full exhaust, just the Cat will free it up to at least 320 to 330rwkw.

Dirty32 Legendary member!! Donating Members 1,739 Member For: 17y 10m 10d Gender: Male Location: Dianella, West Oz Posted 14/05/08 05:46 AM Share Posted 14/05/08 05:46 AM Those mods should comfortably see you over the 300rwkw mark?From memory your driving a manual - I know some ppl's clutches get a bit iffy around the 280 mark so might want to look into that.To see 280, you would probably be able to miss out on a full exhaust, intercooler and valve springs.You could do it with a Tune, Injectors and CAI. If ya wanna take it further then a fuel pump (cheap insurance), Cat & clutch would be more suitable mods than the cooler and full exhaust.If you were to throw a cooler and exhaust on, it would make more power or the same power with less boost.Correct me if im wrong ppl!!!

They're sh1thouse aren't they? Edited 14/05/08 05:53 AM by R-SPEC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
