Hi all
I'll be looking to get the car mapped in the near future but am wanting to get some other supporting mods done before hand to make the most of the potential the engine has. I've been browsing a here and a few other sites trying to turn up as much information as I can but there seems to be so much conflicting information out there, all my research has succeeded in is confusing me even further.
Mechanically, the car is pretty much as it was the day it left the factory except for a plate blocking the EGR as it enters the intake pipe.
My plans are :-
Gut the cats
Modify the back boxes, cutting them open, removing the baffling and piping them straight through to the tailpipes
Change the injector nozzles
Upgrade the turbo
I'm not looking for ridiculous power but would like to release what the engine is capable of without overstretching it at the cost of reliability, what I'm looking for is some solid advice on whether I'm heading the right way with the above or is there anything else I should be doing and advice as to which nozzles and turbo I should be going for and where these can be sourced.
Sorry if some of these questions are a bit tedious and thanks in advance for any help
Carl
