    Grab the turbo install kit mate. Also injectors if you don't have them, 4 bar reg & fuel pump. All the gaskets for your engine build. Forge 008 diverter with spring kit. New spark plugs. And a big F-OFF 6 piston Porsche front brake kit

    was meant to comment in this thread after getting my install done on the ECS stage one kit - anyone unsure about doing this mod/upgrade/maintenance because of the 'noisy idle' is IMO absolutely insane. The reality is there is possibly a 15% increase in noise when the car is stationary, AC on and foot off the clutch, I come from a car with a LWFW which was about a 300% increase in noise when stationary and the foot off the clutch (don't know about AC, it's too cold for it in the UK). Even the absolutely disgusting, embarrassing tractor-like idle was nothing to worry about - you just kept your foot on the clutch. Anyways I'll stop rambling and say that I did not notice the additional noise until I tried all of the above to see if I could hear it, and it was only slightly audible and for all I know it could've been like that with the stock setup.
