Right got phase 1and uprated FPR running 14psi constant and an evo6 intercooler
what would be the next mod? is it worth me getting an eds phase 2 chip or is there not a lotof difference to the phase 1?

the difference between the 2 chips is not much
would have thought 3.5bar fpr on phase 1 would give nearly the same power considering the evo intercooler should be better than the eds one

Get an XE inlet cam in there chap.

Dunno if its worth going from Phase 1 to 2 as there wouldn't be much in it.

I don't think fitting a 3.5bar fpr on Phase 1 will do anything but overfuel it tbh, the phase 1 chips are set to 3.0 bar pressure not 3.5

yeah do two things nexti would, phase2 has a much more aggressive map and the inlet cam makes a huge i mean huge difference in the upper rev ranges. i was well impressed with the responce on mike's when we did his inlet cam.

so assuming my engine is in good condition ( which I believe it is, no burning oil e.t.c) at the moment I should be running about 260-270bhp at 14psi
so would a phase 2 chipset and the xe cam give me 300bhp?
thats what I am aiming for

phase 1 gave me 246bhp, i would imagine your running 260-265 yeah, phase 2 with your intercooler would get you further up to approx 285-290 and the inlet cam may improve figures further up the rev range and might add a few bhp too.

(figures quoted are being realistic so not to give to high hopes)

U may have to wait though, I am waiting for one from him, but he is having a delay problem with his supplier.
