Sounds beast :O

I recommend the Gruppe-S header and front pipe combo, you won't regret the bang for buck this offers along with a decently aggressive sound.

You can get these car to run on 95 ron safely but you do have to back the timing off in some areas and also run more DI fueling percentage than the stock tune runs.

They will run on 95 on the stock tune but not well and have considerable knock constantly.

see below you need to move to Australia mate
Man your fuel is cheap.. From what I've read 98 would be equivalent to US93 and 95Ron = US91. I'm currently running 95premium here in NZ and don't get any knocking but I'm worried once I get the headers and a OFT the tune isn't going to suit. I don't really know how to meddle with the tunes myself.
I need to try and talk work into giving me a fuel card that allows 98Ron..

err.. good point.

I sold a 40yr old muscle car to buy my GT86.. so with that old v8 knocked you felt it through your feet. So I'm a bit old school.

I guess I should get a OFT and learn to do some logs!

Any suggestions? (I live in Australia)
Thanks in advance!

Openflash uel headers and tablet combo is prettymuch the best price vs performance upgrade you can do. Sounds amazing as well.

my suggestion is SEARCH!
Ya because it doesn't hurt to just answer. In some cases it's identical to saying "search" blah blah blah.
Not everyone is a forum junkie/pro. Each post helps us newbs who unintentionally re-post stuff.

Or instead of saying "search" remind people how to search the forums. I've forgotten how since I usually just google and it comes up with useful threads here.
