Putting the standard dumpvalve back on? (Sorry, pet subject).

How about better brakes or driver training?

aar the famous greasemonkey, read a lot of your comments in time gone buy !!!!

the bailey dv was put on because in my earlier days of scoob ownership some said it would be a good idea because the turbo spins quicker because i had had a full de-cat, less back pressure, of course i now know different (:

breaks are already uprated

if possible grease i would like to aviod front mount ic lager turbo tdo5 555 or 480 injectors blarr blarr,

driver training (: very good, my title doesnt suggest the level of my ability to drive a car, or ride a motorcycle, you metal box lover (:

Can avoid FMIC by putting a bigger top mount on. There are a few aftermarket alternatives, or, assuming you have an MY99/00 car, the STi5/6 part is a little bit better, while the new age WRX/STi ones are better again, if more of a job to fit in.

Again, if you have MY99/00, you have 440cc injectors, which are good for 350bhp or so with the right fuel pump and pressure, so no desperate need to change those. What you do want to change depends a lot on how much you're looking to spend and what sort of output you're ultimately after.

You're already getting a tidy output from the TD04 and will be starting to push it beyond the envelope if you go much further, so a bigger turbo (TD05FE/VF29/VF34) would probably be the next thing on your shopping list, along with a TeK3 upgrade, and ideally a better IC.
