Exhaust and ECUTEK just added - ECUTEK is most awesome mod I have done to car so far, car is a weapon now. Tune added 20kw at wheels and about 40NM. Mod also eliminated all lag previously experienced with electronic throttle. Price wise, I was partly sponsored so didn't have to pay for dyno tuning, but I believe pricing will be around $1500 normally. Definatlely, most value for money mod.

Thanks to the boys at Ultimate Tunes.

Some updates, got the new HKS ES Premium exhaust system, EcuTEK, replaced KW coilovers with HKS Hipermax III (in progress).
Hit 150 kw at wheels with huge gains in torque and removal of lag from electronic throttle.
main restrictions being dump pipe and turbo.

Next up will be the interesting part
turbo: HKS2835, PE1825F, HKS GT-RS
Tomei/Fujitsubo Headers + up pipe, HKS Metal Catalyzer Twin Scroll Dump Pipe with flange to attach to turbo
intercooler: Trust FMIC
injectors: SARD 650CC
fuel pump and further tuning

well done Alan, looks like the car is really coming together now that you have Tek tuned it. Looking forward to hear about your next set of mods as I will likely be doing very very similar snail, pipe, cooler mods shortly. Have it booked for Ecutek tune here in Perth in two weeks time. Then next mods will be contacting you!!
Cheers Dave
