Looking for some advice guys,

I've done loads of reading but it seems to be going in one ear and straight out the other :?

I'm looking to get my bhp up to around the 240 mark, from what I've read, this shouldn't be too difficult or costly on the h22a8.

All I've bought so far towards this is an atr intake manifold.

Sourcing an ECU.

Getting a custom exhaust made up before the remap, thinking a 2.75inch exhaust would be a good option? (I don't mind loud when the foot is down but like a quiet start up)

Looking into into exhaust Mani's, not sure what would be the most suitable or best value.

With the atr intake Mani, am I best using the atr injectors?

Any other ideas?

I always thought 2.75" exhaust would be a bit excessive for an N/A build. Probably wrong though as generally, my knowledge comes from b series engines :-)

i think 2.5 is good for N/a bigger for turbo builds afaik the atr injectors have a superior spray pattern apparently so go with them 8-)

That's good to hear, I'll just stick to my current exhaust then, saving money already 8-)
