If your running a 19t already and a Rica chipwhay not add to it with a good turbo back exhaust system if you don't have one already. You could always have a custom map to see if there are any gains to had that way. Either way your looking at around £500 on just those two options.

...... £500 on just those two options.

And the rest. If it's an off the shelf RICA map, then not much can be done with it, certainly not at a "proper" custom level, so you'll in effect be starting from scratch on the map front.

I meant £500 on each item.

A V70R should have a 19T. The 16T belongs on the ME7 T5's.

Just swapping to a bigger turbo won't make a massive difference until you tell the car's ECU what to do with the new turbo. It would also need bigger injectors etc else it's time to bend rods/melt the block. Until you know what you have to start with, trying to work out what mods to do is a waste of time.

What year is your V70R?

[MARKY70RRR]

Nope, the starting point is a full stage 0 service and a thorough check to know what parts are actually fitted to the car.

Pardon me bud got a bit spec for ye:D, you have a nine month old dizzy and rotor, magnecor 8mm Ht leads, Denso Iridium SP's, turbo is stock, waste gate adjusted when RICA'd. My next move would have been, S60R exhaust manifold and 3" Down pipe and sports cat plus a proper custom map then maybe a FMIC??? But she's your baby now :) Hope all is well bro.

[Dangerous Dave]

That should be a powerful beast with just those things on shouldn't it? I know the awd saps the power a bit, but nonetheless.......

Either that or something is slightly wrong with it so its not at its best?

You've got green injectors so it shouldn't be running lean but get the AFR's checked.(do it yourself with a wideband). no-one can custom map the rica (over here) so i'd look at maybe mte as you'll be able to custom map with every upgrade..what's your running gear like there's no point in having a fast car that handles like a boat and doesn't stop ..get the throttle body ported , bigger fuel pump(nescessary)
The mods mickhoon mentions (next move) are all great and i have them (not intercooler,but i have niagra falls lol))but they aren't plug and play, you need to get it all running/tuned correctly as he says..
