yea theres a good one but for salein the for sale thread but you need to be paid up to see it i think. and theres a few tings to look out for. one is for noisey vvt actuator not to coman but you need to listen down the left side of the engine for a loud rattle. after a run do a long idel test to check the turbo seals. at least 10 mins once warm. the rest is just check general condition.
as for tuning is not to bad anymore, depends what you looking for. 320bhp is easy.

Hello and Welcome. Just check for VVT rattle Chain rattle from the LHS of the engine) and Smokey Turbo (let the car idle for 10/15mins, if theres a lot of white smoke, most likely needs a new turbo as the turbo seals will be shot). I would say its quite easy to get close to 300hp without the need of a map with a few bolt on mods, SRI/TIP, Decat etc If you want over 300hp, then you'll be needing a map either a remap from the likes of totalmps, bbr, RSTuning or diy via Versatuner or COBB AP. You'll need new pump internals over 300hp as well just to be safe

Hello and I thought what Shaun says was true too about the HPFP, until Justin (DJJUT) told me off, I quote…. "Wrong...... fuel pump internal requirements are related to how boost is tuned and how aggresively it comes in. The dips in fuel pressure mainly occur in spool up when going WOT or between gear changes"
