I read somewhere that a guy got his car to 185kw with a stock ecu.. possible? i want to get the most out of the stock ecu for the moment as i'm saving up to get a haltech ecu..

I have a stock ecu, 3inch dump, hi flo cat, 3 1/2 inch cat back, standard turbo, splitfire coils, pod filter, turbosmart bov and a turbosmart eboost2 (11psi) boostcontoller and i pulled 186kw@wheels.

but i am half way through heaps of other supporting mods - including gready plenum, Q45 90mm throttle, gready fuel rail, 650cc injectors, gready intercooler (spec R), and new microtech computer.

didnt get to do my first dyno at racepace :down: benno rang said its bad idea because turbo winding and really load but some ppl told me its because it used to be a track car and turbo could be boosted, it went up at 1 bar so it boosted to 13./14 psi i think, so not going to do my first till i have new turbo l :wub:

I wouldn't get coilpacks until you need them...spend the $4-500 on something else. I ran with standard coils and ~250rwkw for months without misfire, and only bought coilpacks because they came up at a great price brand new.

i agree i only have them because they were playing up and thought i'd spend the extra money to upgrade them, if i were you i would start with a pod filter, then exhaust and then same type of boost contoller. and see how that goes.

How did you get it to that? and who tuned your car?
