Hi guys,
Can anyone who has one, or has a mate with one let me know what you / they have done to get a bit more go out of them..
I was thinking a 3 inch exhaust, some pump mods, bit more boost and dynoed should do it….is this about right? Anyone know what sorta gains I'd get from this?
Also, who should I use to get this done - who knows these things very well?
Thanks in advance.

Have a look on the Patrol Forum for the Dyno thread, that will show gains compared to Standard.
Ive got 3" dump & exhaust & a litttle pump tune & its a bit better.
Best is to see if someone local has the same car with similar mods to do a drive in & see if your happy.

Stock GU pump, GQ is about 100rwkW.
200rwkW takes 30 + psi boost, modded pump, intercooler of decent size, 3" exhaust.
Dyno figures are only as accurate as the quality of the dyno and it's operator, some are innacurate and some are dishonest.
If looking at dyno figures make sure the atmospheric compensations are within 4% of 1 and the dyno has an SAE, preferably a post 1990 one, to ensure is accuracy has been checked by an independent body.
