NICE!

Hopefully you'll get more out of it though mate, 150rwkw seems pretty low for a turbo 250.

Keep us posted with your progress then mate :D 12psi + intercooler + LPG + 250 should see WELL above 190rwkw. Although, your T5 might not last long (I'm assuming you've got a T5 & not a TKO or other 5 speed)

Well setup you will make over 230rwkw on less than 7psi.
As far as a custom plenum goes make something out of 3mm aluminium with runners around 150mm long.

A good ecu will do wonders too.

Good idea for a turbo plenum
