Hey man,

That's a decent list of upgrades you've got there.

Minus the fuel pump and brake upgrade - that's pretty much my list of current mods (even the 18" rims). The car will drive/perform completely different.

You'll love it! Just make sure you do all the upgrades BEFORE getting it tuned otherwise you'll just need to retune it again.

- Alex.

PS. Mine.

I'm pretty sure it was more to do with one of the intake sensors, possibly on the MAF sensor? Oh, and it's a bitch to put in - there's a small support brace on the inside of the panelwork that needs to...uhh...be removed....then it fits perfectly. Oh, except the bolt doesn't line up. Since i've bought mine - they're released a new version of it, so good luck!
