Shouldn't be too far off of the mark once the inter cooler is fitted, and a good increase in torque too - keep us updated on those figures!

Looks awesome, by the way.

Depends on the dyno etc...

Some people get 300 with a healthy set up stock turbo on full stage 3 (FMIC, DP etc... - 280 with lots of torque is a more realistic target - wheel horse power is the figure to look for.

Driveability is more important as more power won't always feel better if it has poor delivery.

yeah not sure what i expect to get, i suppose it could be tuned to within an inch of its limits and make big numbers, but its not really about that for me. It has to be kept as a daily driver and be comfortable enough for me to pop to the shops in!

will be interesting to see what they can get from it, but i know that Ben and co will do a good job keeping it to a useable standard.

Does that mean you've got some figures to put up?

That is pretty impresive figures there, well done.

That Elevate Inlet Manifold must have made a good difference in itself? I'm going to be getting a few tweaks in the summer so I'm well looking forward to it now.

By far the biggest difference came from the intercooler. Over 30C reduction on intake air temps makes all the difference in the world for these cars.
