Then you'll need a custom tune - probably around $200, plus dyno time ($100 - $120/hr). You may find cheaper if you shop around, but allow that much anyway.If you do choose to increase power you will have to allow extra expenses later down the track I.e. clutch upgrade minimum and/or valve springs.

As you know, I run quite a bit higher than that with my car, and I still have std. mk 1 springs, with no problems at all.If you want some further information about this, maybe we can have a chat at your bbq on the 8th BBQ Will there be steak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In saying that there car was a freak and felt bloody good stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
