Default re map advice

Hi,
I have a Wagon Sti V2 import with standard 260bhp but with an HKS system and panel filter. I am about to have a major service (inc cambelts) done this week and after that am considering an induction system and remap. Can anyone recomend a good induction system (was thinking about K&N 57i) and anywhere to get a remap in the South West London / Surrey area? Not really sure what I can expect from the remap but imagine a slight boost in bar and better fuelling for the induction system?
Thanks

I wouldn't bother with the induction kit. The standard air box doesn't become restrictive until around 400bhp iirc. Also unless it is set up correctly you would be sucking in hot air from the engine bay.

Go for a decent panel filter and save your money IMHO

Strongly agree with above, skip the induction kit. Standard air box is easily good for 350bhp and probably more. Contact Jolly Green Monster on here for advice on remap, I know he travels and comes highly recommended. Big service, Ouch
