Can Anyone Tell Me Where To Start And Whats Safe To Do To My Zed But Not At Mega Expense And What Sort Of Power Gains Im Likely To See

Thanx Dave

 

A few little things:

 

Apexi Powerflow Kit - £80

JWT Chipped ECU - £100

Stainless De-cat Exhaust - £400-£800 approx

Electronic Boost Controller - £150 approx

Unorthodox Underdrive Pulley - £100

 

could be wrong, but looking at 350bhp or so.

(careful with de-cat unless you are certain of your turbo oil seals)

 

Hope this helps.

If I Chipped The Car And Had An Induction Kit And Boost Controller What Sort Of Gain Do U Think That Would Be And Is It Safe To Do All Of These Things?

unchippd use the boost controller to take it to about 11 psi. With chip take it to about 1 bar.

If you ran it up to 14psi, then your looking at anyting from an 50-80bhp gain.

 

But before modifying make sure you get the car checked over first. Get it plugged into ECU diagnostics and get your fuelling checked...etc

 

I personally always go for improving handling & braking before increasing power, but the temptations are strong.

Fully agree, much more fun for your money. Its hard not to want to always go faster though!

i might add This is as far as you can go with stock injectors, turbo's & intercoolers.

 

Some use boost jets instead of electronic boost controller, which is a bit of a grey area
