the best umph mod i think is a boost controller, a good one. you may push the poor k24 to the limit with one but you will see a ultrafast resopnding s2 with a good controller. i use a turbosmart e-boost2
what gives the most uumphhhhhhhhh

Have you got a decent exhaust, turbo back? That's more important than anything you've mentioned.
The RS2 IC is pointless on a k24 car as I found out.
As for the rest of the options, a freer flowing EM will help but not much as the k24 has a small turbine which limits flow anyway.
Reverse inlet is a nice idea.
3B flywheel is a must if you've got a standard FW, makes one heck of a difference.Cheers'en, AndyC

Have a Miltek exhaust at the rear will have to check the cat back but wiukld have thought was with it ... standard down pipe...
2.75 or 3"?
What do you reckon and where from please?
and why and how does the 3b flywheel make the difference.. maybe a daft question but have no idea apart from maybe lighter?
ThanksS2 Avant ABYComment

exhaust from quattronics is the best i have ever seen. i cannot fault mine unless you want a less intrusive sound. i met a neighbour last nifght who i didn't know and he was with a mate of mine and said he could hear me from about 1 mile away.Comment

fit a good cold air intake dont waste the money on a rs2 box.
stick with the standard cams.
go filter,exhaust unless you plan a bigger turbo, boost controller,
go filter,rods,turbo,ex manifold, boost controller, interdcooler, inlet manifold, cams if you want like 500+. im about here now just bedding it in.
and BRAKES, big ones for even a standard car. i can confirm that porsche 996 GT2 6 pots and 993tt discs fit under 17" bbs split rims. justComment

RS2 turbo is a brilliant buy for those on a budget. Excellent for day to day use when used in conjuction with MRC high boost chips, sub 13 sec 1/4 and 4 sec quarters with right setup.
If you have more free cash then go the garrett route for 400 bhp plusComment

Ye a I`ve seen that ....
The Cone just sounds great and with a 180 degree samco pipe (rally design) so the front of the filter is right behind the light you get awy with it ... just ...
KNow what yiou mean though..

ABY is fitted with the dual mass flywheel as standard and it dulls everything down and is heavier, 3B was a good mod on mine.
Don't bother with the RS2 airbox, just cut the front off the OE box, free mod and it works.
OE DP is 2.5", Milltek cat-back is 2.75", best bet is to get a 3" DP and sports cat and have it grafted onto the Milltek, should be <£500 for 034/Supersprint/CustomCheers'en, AndyC
