Old skool boost lol
Yes will need to check AFR but car is all set up and ok at 1.1 bar and ECU is very good at working this out and owners have all done this with no problems even at 1.3 bar but then this is getting close to the fuel pumps limit

Stock one is pants and I was running a risk using it with the extra BHP .
The new Greedy one is over x 2 the size of the old one with bigger inlet and out let pipes and the fan is bigger too

Ok so iv finished the intercooler and put the boost to 1.15 Bar and will check this with AFR at Surrey rolling road on the 08/02/14 on on another run before .
I have fitted front and rear strut braces .
Have put new coil pack , HT leads , Dizzy and roter arm in and just done another full service with fuel filter oil + filter and x 1 grade colder plugs ( grade 7 NGK ) and a new HKS foam filter for the induction .
A few other bits are hi performance bulbs ( ring 120 % ones and matching LED side light ) and some TRD bits ( gear knob , oil cap rad cap ) .
I have a break stopper to put in as well but im not sure what to do next from the below two options ?
Break upgrade with new disc Hi performance pads , SS brake lines .
Front and rear White line ARB and new drop links .
What do people think should be next
Regards

Yeah im not thinking its going to be amazing but for £ 22.00 cant hurt and reviews seem good for it for better feel .

It prevents the bulkhead from flexing, it gives a firmer feel to the pedal.
One bolt is already present on the stock front bulkhead in front of rad to secure it, you can add another as there is a hole in the stopper, you then adjust the arm out to brace the master cylinder and lock it off.
