No idea to be honest, I'm just getting the car up to spec ready for a 19T. With the 14T it should pick up a lot quicker, cooler denser air turbo's love, so it'll all helps.
If I stick a 19T on there now it'll be over heating and EGT's and IAT's will be way too high. With a large downpipe, 200 cell race CAT and the intercooler everything will stay nice and cool and heat soak won't be so much of an issue.
I'm getting a Devils Own methanol/water injection kit in a few weeks which I'll install - That'll help things along nicely too.
With the 19T and Ashoks software it'll be running around the 320-330bhp mark hopefully with long term reliability.
Next up after turbo will likely be clutch. I've been advised the standard DMF and T4 clutch setup is actually more than up to the power. No doubt I'll be convinced to fit a gripper (LSD) while it's apart, I'm waiting to see how good they are at Castle Combe this year though
