Hi All,
Got a 20v Turbo,giving approx 265 bhp and I am looking to upgrade the Dump Valve,Fuel Pump and possibly the Intercooler. I see that Alternative Autos do 2 types of Baileys Dump valve (the noisy one and the quieter one).Are ther any more "alternatives" to these 2 ? Is the WALBRO fuel pump my best option? and where on earth do I begin looking for a better Intercooler. I have had advice as to replacing This with a pace or evo

Hey. How have you managed to get 265bhp from your coupe?

Hiya mate, you probably won't need the fuel pump for the time being, there's people running close to 300BHP and no fuelling issues. A good rolling road would confirm whether you are leaning out somewhere. As for dump valves, take your pic, you can fit whatever as long as it is of the twin piston design.
The pro alloy intercooler is widely regarded on the coupe forum as being the best Intercooler for the coupe. There's usually a group buy ongoing from them, here's the link:

There's also a bar and plate FMIC on sale from Timpyeon

Sounds good but the pro alloy is certified through hundreds of happy coopsters. I'd go for a FMIC next.
 
Hi Pinin,
Thanks for all the info,have just bought a new intercooler from Tim Pyneon on e bay,so im looking foward to receiving it.
Best Wishes
