AFAIK IHI is basically just the Turbo, but to get 330bhp or whatever, you need different injectors, pump, prob some internal bits, FMIC, etc

Advise, dont get a yellow one!


Also water/meth injection can be used for extra fueling (on diesels can add 30bhp for about 300quid!)

It's going through a turbo so it's not really going to make a blind bit of difference.
