Hi Guys,

I have searched and searched but can't find any clear info on what mods I need to install before hopefully having my car mapped
I don't want to go crazy and spend money I haven't got, but saying that i would like to keep it safe and not risk anything
Thanks

A common theme is Full Service, Intercooler, Fuel Pump + FPR, Exhaust, Air Filter, BoostController, (+ brakes/suspension as you see fit)

You dont need any/all of the above but that covers most of the basics before spending big £

Wideband O2 sensor with AFR gauge (MTX-L recommended), that will definitely help you to stay safe.

you will need
-good service (fresh oil, new or cleaned air filter, tighten all hose clamps and check for vac leaks)
-Uprated fuel pump
-Uprated Front mount intercooler
-Wideband 02 sensor (if your tuner doesnt have one to bring along)

things that aren't nessacary but good to do
-FPR
-Decat or good exhaust system
-Bigger injectors

you dont need a boost controller as the tuner can raise the boost via the factory solenoid.
