hi all, had my first scooby for a little while now and now want to start doing some mods to it. The car is a 1997 (r) 2000 turbo, it has a cat back stainless exhaust and a boost controller fitted.What other basic mods would you recommend??

ps I recently increased the boost via the boost controller and the engine basically lost power when reaching a certain boost. What is causing this??

thanks

full decat, pannel filter then a remap should see you well for a few months, untill you want more

lol

mmm, not sure about the lost power, did the boost drop off?
