have my car running at this power for a while now, was just wondering what mods should i do as supposrt mods to what i have already done, like should i be fitting boosy solenoids and the like??

SC36 billet turbo,
Walbro fuel pump,
full stainless steel system inc de-cat,
cold air intake,
and thats about it really apart from non engine mods.

Any suggestions wud be greatly appreciated.

cheers

 

6 speed box would be a good long term move

 

was thinking more of engine mods, but i think the hawkeye box is good for around 400bhp, but i couldnt say for sure.

 

Is it a 2.5 if so a VF34 would give you 340 bhp and 400 ft/lbs at 2800rev's makes a quick car

 

Its usually the torque that goes through the gearbox that does the damage especially on a 2.5 with a 5 speed, I wouldn`t push it any further is my advice,

Supporting mods would be if you dont already have them, An STI intercooler to bring temps down and a set of gauges to see whats going on and obviously brakes as the 4 pots will give brake fade early with a bit of enthusiastic driving with the power you have,

Gaz.

 

i already have a sc36 billet turbo

 

an sti intercoller is on my list! gauges also, but i dont know which ones to get, defi is an obvious choice except for the price.
i have uprated discs and pads already so no issues there really!!

 

Wrong ! I know two people who have killed three boxes at 370-480 !

Sorry !

dunx

 

push it over 350bhp with even greater torque which the 2.5l make on a 5 speed and your on borrowed time, as like anything some last longer than others

 

What made you go for a sc36?

 

mines went at 355bhp and same torque.
ive got a 6spd in mine now,
get an sti tmic, prosport gauges are the next best thing to defi's,strut brace,

i have also fitted on my hawkeye wrx whiteline front and rear arbs,droplinks and uprated bushes, h brace and alk,car feels planted although im going for coilovers,
