downpipe, decat/race cat, filter, pannel with smoothed airbox or CAI, bigger turbo, IHI, anythin list is endless, how much cash you got, thats the most important question, could be the diff between a pannel filter and an IHI conversion!

I'm also looking to make a lot of changes to my LCR.
Currently got Revo stage 1, BMC CDA and forge DV.
Got about £3.5-5K to spend. What's the best way?
Was thinking about Blueflame exhaust and FMIC to begin with?
Sorry to be thick but what's IHI? :confused:

What's your budget?

For around £2k you can look at JBS's big turbo Stage 1 conversion that will give you around 300bhp.

For less than that, you can do the rest of your exhaust system.... if you have a cat back system now, you just need a sports cat and downpipe to finish things off. Then, get yourself a 4bar FPR, a new air filter and ideally a front mounted intercooler and you can go and get the Stage 2 Revo code uploaded to your car.

That's about as far as you can take the car really, as the standard turbo becomes the limiting factor. If you want more power than that, you have two options really... Change your car... or change your turbo.

Don't forget to factor in insurance costs when looking at all this.
