Stage1 tune

Probably running pretty safe at that mate so just running good octane fuel and regular servicing with quality components should provide longevity. If you really wanted to you could put an intercooler on to keep your charge temps nice and low

 

Would not bother doing anything, it's strong enough and reliable enough, out of the factory. You could lower it, but that's about it, if you are not after any extra horses

 

What sort of bhp could you push “safe ish” do you think with stock internals?

 

Think people are getting 400bhp, I think it's too much tourque that makes them pop

 

Mine is at rs tuning end of May for hybrid, induction kit, injectors, exhaust, decat and map. Just hoping the fucker doesn’t die on me once done.

 

It’s hit or miss with these engines realy. Some are running 550nm for 10k+ while others snap rods at just above 500nm. All depends on how much you strain the engine. Grippy tires, a non slipping clutch and hard use will increase the risk of running into problems.

 

I would not do anything else. I have a tune and BMC filter with stock Akrapovic exhaust and the car is brilliant on track, never had temp issues and more than enough poke to run good times.

I’d focus on good tyres obviously and good pads. I’m going to the PFC 350mm 2 pieces next.
