Tasty Upgrades

[Yeorge]

Hi All,

I am saving my money at the moment, hoping to, in a few months, get some work done on my car at Ktec Racing (nearest RS Tuner to me).

I was thinking a KTR induction Kit, Cat Back exhaust (already have de-cat center pipe) and a remap.
Was just wondering what kind of gains would I see from this? or If anyone has any ideas of other mods which would increase power within the £1000 budget.

She's a '57 197 also..

Cheers!
George

Don't waste your money.

You won't get anything significant at all, certainly not anything that'll make you think 'man I'm glad I spunked 1k on this!'

How much is the KTR induction kit?

 

[Yeorge]

Erm.. About £215.. :/

 

[172Ben]

WTF!!!!! seriously... Isn't it just a filter with a pipe?

 

[Dan@SJM]

I'd recommend just having a panel filter and a remap (which I'm pretty competitive pricing against ktec)

If I was you I would be taking the trip to dan for the mapping.

I do have an ITG Panel filter fitted, how much for a remap, and what kind of gains would I expect?

Also thanks for your input guys, to think of it; £1k is alot for 20-30bhp

Efa.

£1k won't see 20-30 bhp!!

Exhaust £400-500
induction kit - £200ish
Remap £300

£1000 gone and maybe, on a good day with the wind blowing in the right direction, 10bhp.

 

[172Ben]

Lol. You ain't getting 30bhp.

I can't get over that "induction kit" price.

 

[Dan@SJM]

£250 for a custom map with engine health check.
