stop yelling mate ! lowercase is just fine
turbo upgrade is a solid bet. You can hybrid a larger turbo with the exhaust side of the standard one to create a practical bolt-on solution , or get a new manifold and dump made up for a different turbo. With a free flowing exhaust ( 2.5" seems fine for most people ) Aftermarket ECU will get you great results too as long as its tuned well ( $$ ). combine that with some bigger injectors when / if you need to start flowing that kind of fuel. The BA fuel pump will handle quite a fair bit too. Also make sure your pod is being fed by a cold air duct so that its not sucking in hot air from the engine bay. Work out how much $$ you want to spend, justified against how much extra power is practical for your typical driving . There's no point throwing 10k into big upgrades to just drive it on suburban streets , for example |
