From now on in your car the increases v's cost is minimal.
Depends what you want but if it's noticeably more power/torque look into a new turbo with supporting mods

I started 2 threads on different forums and everyone all recommended prospeed. When down their myself about 2 weeks ago to price up a full 3" turbo back system £600. Charlie (Owner) is a very nice knowledgeable guy.

Pro-speed in cardiff is awesome, and charlie is a top bloke and knows his stuff. I got a full downpipe back system made by him from my 300bhp Audi s2. Sounds great, looks great, massively improved the turbo spool and top end pull. The welding is ART!!!

Only thing to say though, it will take him twice as long as he tells you it will!! He has a habit of being a bit of a perfectionist, and also has trouble with people turning up and springing jobs on him. Its no bad thing but worth bearing in mind as he may well say it will take him half a day to do, but will prob take him all day.

The price for his work is amazing! The stainless is top notch and he makes all the silencers from scratch and they flow very well!

What size system you go for as im inbetween a 3" and 2.5" for a stage 2 map. What price did he charge you if you dont mind.

turbo downpipe

is it worth getting the turbo downpipe done at same time as having sport cat and complete system done,good gains and smoother turbo?

Yes, you will get massive gains, turbo spool, smoother power delivery, I'm just saving for my downpipe and de-cat, I opted for decat cps I don't mind jacking her up once a year

You have a 180 LC? is the sports cat not part of the downpipe?

It is on all the ones I've seen unless you've just bough the actual cat itself?
