Hi Guys Picking up a new 3 MPS on the weekend. Currently driving a Civic R with a few mods and hoping to do a few tweaks to the Mazda too. I cant post in the tuning section yet (I guess you need a certain post count right?) So I wanted to ask what a shopping list for 300hp might look like? Many thanks!

Ah welcome, just asked you when you were getting it on the civic forum. Sounds like you have a similar shopping list to myself so I'll help:
Turbo inlet pipe Short ram intake Recirc dump valve uprated (forge etc) De cat or sports cat Uprated fuel pump internals Followed by either a remap withe XO,BBR etc or using the versatune kit that a lot use on here
Have a look at FR & R Tuning although they have a bad rep on here to give you idea of prices etc or try corksport in the US and I port yourself and there is XO when the website is fully up and running
Oh and if you update your profile to show what car you are getting it will help others.

Hello and  ! Where in Manchester are you? I'm from Oldham. All I need now is a re-map and I'll be pushing around the 300 barrier. I'm going to get mine done from XO up near Newcastle.

I'm in South Manchester.
Liking the look of the Corksport stg2 intake with the little heat box add on.
Is there a rating on the Re-circulation valves - like on the blow off valves, where you have to match a spring to the PSI of boost youre running?

Welcome. Another ex-Civic owner. Logical choice if you want Japanese reliability and a hot hatch, I guess.

I would honestly add an uprated TMIC or a FMIC to help your engine achieve 300bhp safely.
