Hi everybody, had an MPS for about 3 years now and been modding since i got it, lovely cars. Any one local to Twickenham? Heres the spec sheet so far and a couple of pics. ATP boost cut defender Gizmo Electroinc boost controller (race version) DNP stainless tubular manifold 3" v-band decated stainless downpipe One off exhaust 2 3/4" with race baffles and no cat. Forge Dump valve Mazdaspeed cold air induction kit. Autogauge boost gauge in centre vent satin black badges 18" inovit wheels in anthracite yokohama prada spec 2 tyres tinted windows all round. Drilled discs all round with cerametallic pads front and rear. WOT Box to be fitted. EBC is running 19.0 psi instead of the standard 14.7psi, and power should be in the region of 290-300bhp, it will easily see of a WRX and give an STI a dam good scare !! heres some pics prior to the badges being blacked out and the windows being tinted.      I may be selling up as the wife has (it seems) relented at my pestering to get another Evo !! but until then I LOVE THESE CARS!!

As for power i'm not sure on the figures i would have thought that it would be closer to 310 but wanted to remain conservative so as not to get burned by anyone, i dont know you all yet !

Took me 11 hours to do, and i'm no noobie when it comes to mechanical mods, turbos, pistons, rods etc on previous cars !

Down pipe was from ebay.COM, cost about £200 inc the postage, its a chinese ATP copy, but the quality is spot on, very good fit with no issues. The DNP was a lucky find, a ford owner bought it to fit to a duratec lump and couldnt get it to fit so i got it for the bargin price of £100 !!! it had never been fitted either. I fitted both at the same time, and the difference was amazing, best mods for power id say, i gained 2.5psi at WOT on the same settings on the ebc. I actually snapped a rear half shaft about 2 days later
