next steps in tuning

I've been spending time getting things on my car right, reliable and manual. After the usual service items ive refreshed all the water pipes round the back, deleted all the rubbish and all that sensible stuff. Then I've fitted an uprated rad, uprated oil cooler, the auto turbos have been rebuilt with 360 degree trust bearings and step gapped oil seals, divorced down pipes, 2.5" decats, 2.5" catback . The car recently produced 286bhp and 277ftlb @ 5.4k rpm.

So here's the question... what's next? obviously a chip and boost increase, id like to see around 370/380 fwhp so what do I need to amass and do to get it to that point. Ultimately I would like around 450bhp but that is going to be bigger tubs and will have to wait for another 18 months, before those kind of funds will be available.

Cool tell me more off forum.......

 

Will do bud il show you what ive been looking at for reference and what ive been thinking the good news is the bit I was worried about is mostly irrelevant :)

Once you have it chipped or even better re mapped and the boost turned up you will feel a massive difference and it will be perfect for the road and not having to worry about your arse end kicking out on a b road :cool3:

yes I was going to ask you about yours, as im pretty sure your running 555's on stock turbos arnt you? what psi are you running and how does it feel, in comparison to say 14psi on stock injectors?

I'm only running about 11 psi, injectors don't make any difference its just for reliability really so you don't max them out.

 

Once everything is back together I will get it re mapped by noz and run about 17psi if I can on hi boost in case I come side by side with a skyline etc lol.

Oh right I had it in my head you were running 18psi and were using them to be able to fuel it.
