Fuel pump, fpr, injectors, some sort of ecu, intercooler upgrade. That another £3000ish tho you should be able to get some quality second hand stuff and save a fair bit.

In addition to the parts listed in that kit, you\'d need:

Fuel pump
Programmable ECU (Apexi Power FC is best bet)
Bigger fuel injectors
Intercooler
Colder spark plugs (9s and 10s)
Boost controller
Mapping session

I guess i would also need a better exhaust system is it best to run decat and swap in for mot or run with the cat/s in does the fd have 1 or 2 cats? still learning about the rx7s.
 
Do you mean an uprated fuel pump like walbro or something. Im only looking to run around 400hp. What is safe sort of power to run on a standard engine, ie no porting for reliability also, thanks
