I guess a bug eye owner's mods always come full circle. Start with putting on big ass rims, end with putting on a BOV. Think of how much money you would have saved if you had just given in and threw on 18s, an intake, catback, and BOV in the beginning like every other bugeye owner does.
I don't think my downpipe is the issue (it's an Invidia TBE), it's the up-pipe that may be limiting it. That's a Perrin deal from a few years back. People are running some bigger diameter up-pipes these days for larger turbos with good success.
