1) Alta Air 2 Air Intercooler
2) Shrick Camshaft
3) JCW or Borla Race Exaust
4) OBX headers
5) Throttle body

I noticed an incredible impovment of HP and TQ from just the CAI, 15% pulley and Shark Injector (john confortti) remap. Do you think the improvement would be equivalent to the following upgrades I listed?

So you'd do all this before a pulley reduction? Doesn't make much sense to me....

I don't think they would add up to the same, and the charactheristics would probably be quite different.

Do it all. Then you'd be sorted.

The pulley and remap is 40 odd bhp for £1000 ish.

After that, i gather £1000 gets 10 bhp increases.

Makes sense to do the easy stuff first.

Maybe I have read this wrong but I think 05MCSConvertible has already fitted a pulley, CAI and remap but wants to know if the following mods will equal similar gains.
