yes do it. Best mod I ever did. Not only will you not need to worry about octane booster any more but will probably give you + 20 BHP, more torque and much less lag

but you car could be wicked with a good remap. May as well get a fuel pump, but may not need a regulator (I don't).

and not worry so much about the engine going bang!!I got a RB5 WR and took my PPP ECU off and sold it, following a TEK2.5 remap. Best mod I ever did
You know it makes sense, so get on with it.
Hope this helps, Phill
