Saves you from going back for a retune and they should see you north of 300rwkw.Trust me it well worth the extra mods for the extra power that will be gained....

These things get very addictive once the boost is upped, you will always want more. Being a BA, they have the weakest engines and transmissions (BTR and 5 spd, unless you have a 6 spd manual?) so they will limit the total amount of power you can get without the need to worry about them.Any Stage 1 cooler will do the job if your wanting around 280rwkw.If you wanna do it cheap get,F6 coolerF6 2nd CAI and K&N filterSiemen Dekka 60 injectorsHi flo cat installedFuel pump for safetyValve springs if you need them.Tune <--------- the most important part as to how long the engine and tranny will last.You will also need to speak to your tuner as to how he's gonna tune it Xcal, HP etc... cause you may need to buy an Xcal 3 which you can pickup second hand for around $500.You should sh*t in 280rwkw's..
