    Why when you will have an 18t turbo fitted. If I remeber correctly there isn't a massive difference in flow rate

    you wont need an intercooler either, i take it your car is an auto? if so pwer is restricted to around 300bhp so the standard intercooler is fine, is your car remapped?

    just because the original is sufficient, doesn't mean its efficient. He may not need to replace it, but doing so will release a few more ponies

    You may well be looking at a set of Forged rods buddy to run a reliable 340bhp.

    19t then for 300-320bhp or a k24 for a little more or a Garrett t35 for 340bhp but forged rods you will need
