Nice free flowing exhaust (turbo back), nice intake, boost controller, mapable ECU should get you depending on current health of your engine

i currently hav a 3 inch turbo back and ince induction
wot boost controler should i go 4 and ecu, is it worth gettin a apexi fc
cheers

I will assume its de-catted aswell then?

I hear the Greddy Profec B Spec 2 is a good little controller, I have used mainly HKS and Blitz in the past with good results. I would always recommend a Power FC as I think there great little units

yer ok m8 cheers, yer its de-cated, and wot boost will i need to run for 300 bhp,
and take it the ecu will need to be re mapped

If its the standard turbo most GTS owners recommend running no more then 0.85 bar and yeah the ECU will need to be mapped.

You shouldn't really need a new ECU ala PFC to get that sort of power. Would only splash out on that if you are likely to go for new turbo/injectors/AFM in the future.
Full exhaust including elbow and down pipe, everything else in ggod shape with boost set to .85 on an EBC should see you around the 300mark.
A basic piggyback like the SAFC set up on a dyno should help things along a little more too.

read the note at the top of tech questions were it says rb25det owners, this may help

Your right, although a PFC would certainly help to make the 350bhp mark at that stage. Also from experience, once mapped well it doesnt matter about figures tbh, a well mapped PFC will make the car feel much more natural (if you know what i mean) through the whole rev range. Faster throttle response, more mid range torque, pull stronger from lower down etc.
