Re: yup yup forge on tuesday!!

Its not all about BOOST.... but More-BHP Stage 2 will run 17-18PSI for as long as the turbo can produce it.... the K03s are too small to make big boost in the higher RPM... by doing it you run outside of the turbos efficiency.... which in turn then makes less power not more.

Mandatory required hardware Spec for this is FMIC, TIP, Uprated Air Filter, Full Turbo back exhaust.

Had my intercooler fit today at forge and all i can say is WOW!!! what a difference it has made to the power delivery especially on the mway !!! i got nearly 10mpg more on the way back !! it seems to pull alot harder than it used to when it hits 4000rpm!! Ill post pics when its cleaned etc! chose red logo and red hoses, they even threw in the map to throttle hose too! all fitted for £465 managed to knock another £10 off it LOL! Only the tip to get next! :P :P :P :wink: :wink: :wink:

Awesome! I think it would look better with the OEM grill though. Are you trimming it so the surround just covers the fix points?
