since i've started playing with it.....

what do you think i should do... get it to aprox 340bhp or something then sell..... or keep it?

I have a fair few bits here, ordered, on there way...... just the next stage (running about 1.0bar ) is where the bigger money comes in.... keep it, or sell it when i get to that stage?

i have -

uprated pump
uprated reg
de-cat

on there way

downpipe
FMIC

trying to get el'cheapo

boost and fuel controllers or ECU

After these.... it would need the follwing to run more boost

new steel turbo, steel head gasket....

i have too many things going on in my piss pot heed to think straight

power.... sense... money.... women, beer

I'd say take it to a sensible power figure (so you're happy with the speed) but don't spend too much, cos' you'll probably just sell it in a few months anyway

Wait until u get your gtr and spend proper wonga on that

I have a plan... Pass the car to me and a wad of cash to play with it.. And then while your brain is going round in circles you may forget you ever had it...

why not tune it up using standard turbo to get it going a bit. you can always upgrade that later.

FMIC, fuel pump, regulator, boost controller and a map shoudl see you with a better increase. I'd keep the car adam or just sell it as is. why bother spending money on it just top sell it
