just a bit of extra info to add there, you don't need to go all forged to get a decent power gain.

totally agree thre..cant understand how you can get as little as 170hp on a turbo 16v?? what psi? 3-4lol..
maddison's car is running proof things can work without spending shit loads.
also to add, im going to expect around 280hp'ish when mine is mapped very soon.. and thats with standard internals.
