Thanks mate =) should be roughly 330bhp I'd imagine and maybe around the same with torque, it will be mapped for drivability on track so very linear. I haven't driven it with the diff yet but I do recommend one, I've driven other cars with a quaife atb LSD and the cornering grip is highly noticeable

Thanks mate, there's a couple of track videos in the video section on here from when it was stage 2

It sounds like the system could be over pressurising, does it happen more often if you boot the car or does it have the same affects if you drive it normally?

Thanks =) 02J with a quaife atb lsd

hi mate looking into upgrading the turbo on mine when my FMIC and de-cat turns up what would you advise with standerd internals dont want massive silly BHP like you
just want it to spike abit more little more torque what would you say K04 ???

Standard internal will take around 300bhp and torque but I'd go to 280 to be safe. K03s hybrid is the easiest way to get that power now as it's all bolt on
