    Power upgrade

    Hi All

    The bug has already kicked in quite hard. I'm starting with a Homefry chip but I would like to start gathering parts for the next stage of performance upgrade. I hugely appreciated all advise offered so far and hopefully one day I will be able to offer advise in return to other new members.

    So my plan is to gradually, or quickly, gather parts which will give me a nice fast street car rather than anything meant for a track or strip. With this in-mind I am looking for medium power, circa 350hp, and great low down torque.

    It is my understanding that something along the lines of the following should help me achieve this; K24-7200 or 7400 turbo, RS or similar manifold, RS or similar intercooler, free flow exhaust, possible injector upgrade, and a ECU map.

    I would like to keep the car looking standard so bolt-on parts best suited.

    Any advise hugely appreciated. I am open minded and not precious.

    If anyone has such parts which they would consider selling then please do advise. Maybe what I want is too rare now but I need to start somewhere.

    (I can advise on air cooled Porsches to a certain extent if said marque is discussed on this forum)

    Kind regards
    Dan

    AM cars is dismantling my S2 Avant - has 2 month-old replacement (RS2 compatible) intercooler fitted. They were astonished at the power boost in a standard ABY - best email them: amcars@amcarsquattro.co.uk
    Cheers, Alex.
