Hey guys, just wanted peoples opinion on what i am sure has been discussed millions of times, but how much power can a standard classic UK turbo engine handle? The engine in question is mine which has been rebuilt 9000 miles ago with all new standard components (rods pistons). I know what you are all going to say and yes i should have had forged stuff put in, but i didnt think i would get that...

yes the irdium tips have been know to fail and come off the plug and thus bounce around in the bore. With your mods the 6B's will be fine. I was running these at 360bhp for a good long while 7B's are for the next level IMO. I was running these at 450bhp no probs whatsoever

With the level of modifications I have on my 03 STi, the next logical step could possibly be a FMIC They seem to range from £900+ down to £335 from Harvey! As a map check/adjustment would be required, adding to the cost, I've got to watch the potential overall cost but balanced by a good product. What are peoples findings on the various intercoolers available? Do the cheaper ones perform as...

Hi folks, have had a problem with water getting into my boot recently and have narrowed it down to a few possibilities!! My spare wheel well was half full of water but im near sure that was comming in from the tail lights and finding its way to the spare wheel?

Looking to get an Afterburner 3" Catback from Scoobyworld but at first i was gonna get the Vortex backbox with a De-Cat package, What's the differences in the sizes? What's my best option? Cheers

I realise this has been asked alot but no one seems to really mention Owen Developments. So what is the best turbo (from any company) to extract the maximum power without blowing the engine from a 2.5 STI with the standard pistons? Also what do people know about Owen Developments and their range of turbo's Damo
