    This is awesome info man, thanks heaps! I guess I am aiming for 230-240kw from my dyno tune (at Torque Performance) and need to figure out the best combo of parts to get there. I know another guy got his v8 STI tuned there with full TBE, K&N typhoon intake, grimmspeed 3-port and GFB recirc BOV. He netted 233kw atw.

    So i was thinking, similar mods would give me a similar net power output. The things i have no idea about are if:

    1. Adding a high flow fuel pump will add any value to achieving 230-240kw - Is the stock one capable of delivering up to this level?

    2. Is replacing the intake with a dyno tune going to give me a power gain - So many mixed opinions on this!

    3. Spend the $350 on an intake on something else with more power yield?

    Again thanks again guys, really helpful.

    Been through this with my current car.

    The factory airbox is more than capable at your power level plus you wont get the heat soak factor like you would with the K&N. Just buy a high flow panel filter and chuck it in.

    I would save the $350 on the intake and put it towards your tune or fuel pump.

    With the fuel pump, you are future proofing your car and like what Munkvy said, it will allow the tuner to extract more power.

    While you're at it get a set of 1 step colder plugs fitted too.

    You should be able to run mid/late 11s with that setup depending on your driving and launch. The 2.5XTR is a great turbo and so far I haven't seen any negative reviews but maybe because most people put these on 2.5L engines so the extra displacement helps with the spool.

    Had a look at the graph and that spools feckin slow for a 2.0L if the run was done in 4th gear. Did your tuner say why this is spooling almost 1000 rpm slower than expected?

    Not sure if the Blouch is suppose to be similar to my GT3071R but it does seem slightly more laggy, mines single scroll too...

    Here's my boost graph below -

    Hello,

    I am looking to purchase a 2 Ton (or more) Trolley Jack, of a decent quality and in at least moderate condition. I am located in Auckland. If anyone has one for sale please let me know the brand/price?

    Thanks,

    eZ_Harry

    How much are you wanting to spend?

    I might be able to help you out.

    and I was polite to the cop, he was polite to me, my car was all legal-tegal, and we both went happily on our way.

    what you've said here goes a long way in regards to the situation too. The very few times i have been pulled over, I always make sure I'm polite even if the officer is being a dick.
