You will need a 3 inch turbo back exaust( get one of those split dumps from the guy on this forum), fmic(can get a good cheep one from another guy on this forum), a fuel pressure reg and a Power fc ( get it of the same guy that sells you the fmic). Hope that helps.

really cheap?

Chinese ebay turbo dump + 3" exhaust + bashed cat.

chinese copy ebay intercooler

simarks boost controller

Jarcay DFA.

Please note that the dump pipe might split and the intercooler might not flow and cool enough. You get what you pay for. Just save up.

However, simarks boost controller works well, and so does the DFA, if you put it together right.

You don't need an aftermarket fuel pump or fuel pressure regulator.

I have HKS style dump pipe & exhaust, R34 intercooler, K&N panel filter and Power FC with boost controller kit.

Made 207 rwkw (hub dyno) at 0.7 bar (10 psi).

Total cost including tuning approx $3,400 ($NZ)

You pay for what you get. If you do it on a budget you wont get quality..

words to live by

sure the fuel pump doesnt make any extra power, but i woudlnt want to push the stocko that hard, coz if it lets go, your engine aint going to like it

Also helps to see a good tuner aswell

i went from 187rwkw to 201, just because i was running rich as.

I also have

Power FC

FMIC

AVCR

Split Dump

Panel filter

3" hiflow cat

Running on 12psi

Some money spent on getting things were fixing up performance joints mistakes . i have been to APC, FIST, Mercury (just for power run) and Chiptorque,

im gonna try matty Spry next and thats it.

ok ive got a fmic , 3'' cat back exhaust , pod filter , and one of them turbotech boost controller but never turned it up so still running stock , also i got a power fc but still in the box hehe so is a fuel pump that important? i want 2 put a split dump n hi flow cat but if the fuel pump is more important den i should get that first

also it should be important to note that mods based on a $ per kw gain at the start is very high, then as you progress it drops signifcantly. the first few mods are really cheap and give really good gains. then as you progress up the power tree, usually past 160rwkw it becomes more expensive per kw gain.

ie piggyback vs standalone and so on

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
