[QUOTE="Golfer, post: 1106807, member: 15668"] S9- I think the stuff you got ain't gonna do harm, if any at all, to the car. Exhaust, filter, BOVs are pretty standard stuff. If you are worried, then I think you will need a boost controller more than anything. I think its the unstable boost and boost spikes is the thing that causes ZZs turbo failure and moreover, his car is standard!!.

You need to stabilise the boost in order to protect or prolong the life of the turbo. Or, it could be that something went into the turbo which caused the fins to breakdown. Installing a catback will improve the exhaust flow and reduce back pressure which will give rise to increase power.
