Usual mods are:

Induction kit £120
Free flowing exhaust £100ish used to around £300 new
Decat Pipe around £140
Uprated Intercooler £120
Electronic Boost Controller £300 (you can get a manual one a lot cheaper - about £20 but you need a gauge as well to check you dont overcook it).
Cooler grade plugs £30

With all of the above you should be getting close to your target but after that it starts getting very expensive!!! :-(

I'm just about to fit the following

ST205CC
xxxx Flexi DP

I already have an ARC Airbox on there(I think these are better than a normal cone as they seperate the airfeed from the hot engine bay)

Hoping with a little more boost, say 16psi, that I should crack 300 on my Rev 3 GT-S :thumleft:
