    Buying cheap usually means expensive running, at least with the yellow one you get a sorted one which probably won't need too much doing to keep it nice for years to come.

    You'll need a turbotuner and I'd advise bigger injectors than standard. You will then need to go to RT's to get it mapped. Then because you have the turbotuner you can get the mapped tweaked as you add a bigger free flowing downpipe and sports/no cat, larger intercooler etc etc...
