Ah I see, bargain! Would you suggest the 38 if you had the choice or just which ever is easier to get hold of? Impressive stats! How's it fair against other cars?
Unforchunately I don't know any mechanics/mot testers
! Would the de-cat have to be custom made orrrr?
De cat can be brought from regazzon website.

Or custom made yes any decent exhaust place
Heat soak is when the intercooler doesn't cool as much because it has picked up and retained a lot of heat without being able to disapparate it. Causing the intercooler to not function as well, therefore feels like its down on power.

Epic!
Ah lovely thanks! Had a look on the site, all in euros correct? I wasn't sure which pipe would be the one I need though lol
Well I got my customs cat-back done in Wallsal, which it a fair few miles from me lol, won't be able to go back there!
Ooo I see! Thanks for that
! So an intercooler upgrade would benefit my current and future turbo? What would I see from upgrading it before the turbo?What's epic lol?
The spelling...
Unforchunately I don't know any mechanics/mot testers
Its spelt unfortunately.
Ah sorry didn't realise we had the spelling police here..
Not yet mate, but it's fine as the timing and fuelling on the map are ok for these mods, if I got a decat and want to put a stiffer actuator spring in, it will need map tweaking for the full potential.
Either turbo is very good, I had the choice but only one other person had used a vl38 on a Tjet so I wanted to see what gains I would get.
It is very impressively quick, will have most car off the lights, type rs, gtis and what not.
It's funny because people don't expect it to be that quick because its a fiat.
You may get your local MOT man to pass a de-cat, but you won't get it past a VOSA spot check "pretty car, sir, shame we're impounding it".
The 500 (let alone the GP!) is disadvantaged primarily by its weight. The Poles have T-Jet powered Cinqs well into the 12 second standing quarter mile (albeit, probably on slicks). Doesn't sound alot, but is way faster than a stock MR2 turbo or a Volvo T5.
