big turbo,turbo back exhaust,bigger maf,bigger injectors,fmic,dv,remap and about 4k........i dont see why it wouldnt be reliable...you may find that thrashing it will wear different parts quicker due to more stress but would be worth it!!!

Look at ATP GT2X,

Mine runs 284 BHP, but that was on a scorching day 25 Degree ambient temps, feels more like 300 ish really, cost about 4K to get my setup.

There are plenty of threads on this site with all the info you will need.

At 300 BHP it will be reliable, mine gets some abuse with no problems so far.

that HI sounds the nutts one thing that is concerning though isnt all that power in a front wheel drive only good enough for burn outs and lots a new tyres? Mines only 210bhp 250 lbs ft torque and i can easily wheel spin that when racing chavs n stuff?

depends on how you introduce the power ie is the mapping set to just whack it in, or have it come on smoothly. Then there is also how hard you like to stamp your right foot, treat it like the potentiometer that it is, and not a i/o switch.
