hi, i have a standard R and would like a little more poke from it, but would also like to keep reliablity. so what do i need and what sort of power would be safe? also does having a short shift help improve the life of the gear box? thanx

Just go the 1bar route, service it regularly and it should be fairly reliable.

(Filter, exhaust, clutch, fuel pump recommended, plugs, front mount if you want)

Short shifter wont improve the life of the gearbox. May help reduce it through more missed gears tho.

you dont need a fmic on 1 bar as for the clutch (how many miles has it had done )you will find if you turn up the boost the clutch is the first thing to go if all else is set up right

If you want to think more long term rather than the 'turn up the boost and prey' method uprate the clutch and put an e-manage on it. Then you have a basis by which every other mod can be accounted for - properly.

E-manage is a whole new ECU;-)

I think you will find that the E-Manage is only a piggy back unit mate. it is the Apexi Power FC that is the replacment ECU ;)
