    There doesn't seem to be alot left to do without getting pretty serious. I say do track days and drags. Enjoy the fruits of all your hard work and money for a while. Well done with your car. Bet it pulls hard!

    what are you trying to achieve with the car?

    exhaust manifold and electronic boost controller. I'm not too sure how the MPS is setup from factory regarding boost control. however from my experience, an ebc will keep the wastegate shut for as long as possible until the desired boost is reached. this will help in response by building boost quicker rather than letting the wastegate slowly open. once again, you will need to check that adding an ebc wont screw anything up

    also perhaps changing the front end bushes to polyurethane?

    just regarding RSB, you dont want the rear end too stiff especially since you have coilovers. But doesn't hurt to try, you might need to tweak the coilover rates to get it right

    Agree with the replies so far, 'pends what you want to achieve? Fast 1/4 mile times? or improved track times? As Cton mentioned start playing with her on the track and work out what your next mod based on it's current performance. Though you can add some nice cosmetic mods too

    Good luck man and great work to date!

    EBC won't effect anything other than boost. You just can't go past the factory boost limiter.

    He is having tuning done, so, I dare say the boost will be set then to what he wants.

    well its a boost controller, so what else do you expect it to do? unless your saying that a boost controller wont help with response? if so, that definately isn't the case in my experience. having said that, I'm not sure how the MPS' factory boost solenoid is setup to control the wastegate

    Not mine, this one is shortest equal length possible. The owner is running a TMIC and is limited for space.

    Mine is unequal length. Equal length is for a given RPM.
    Longer equal runners = torque is lower in the rev range.
    Shorter equal runners = torque is higher in the rev range.
    Unequal length means a broader torque curve, but, doesn't have the highest peak possible.

    I mean that on the MPS it doesn't effect the ECU's way of controlling boost. I have removed the hose from the factory EBC solenoid and fitted an aftermarket one in it's place. It doesn't make an ounce of difference on an MPS because the car already has an EBC controlling boost. It does however remove some of the cars ability to limit the torque in the first few gears. No factory EBC = no 1,2,3 gear boost limiter.
