I believe there is alot of work for this to be done, why don't you get an adapter plate to get shot of the TVIS system???

Inlet or exhaust?

I think the answer to both is 'not really'. Obviously you can do it, just whether it's worth it.

just have this niggling thought that if I rip out the wiring, then the car will never get out of the garage again.

Still in the garage...

thanks for the replies chaps

my plan was to get a tvis adaptor plate and ats throttle inlet adaptor as i thought that would be enough as my 800 injectors wont go much past the limit of this anyhow.

But... After speakin to 2bar ryan he said get a rev3 inlet on there as its much better from a mappin perspective for the sake of abit of weldin its well worth it...

I am confused man i know andrew stranding? With the red rogue car had way over 500hp on a rev 2 inlet and throttle body a couple of years back

any more advice would be greatly appreciated
