Of coursde if it's an "Old Stazz" as you so delicately put it, adding torque via mods will probably kill it! :D

depends whether u mean torque or bottom end.. coz u can quite easily get more torque up high with more boost and a cooler as brendan said....

getting more bottom end requires something like a TD05H 16G....


how fast do u wanna go?

how much do u wanna spend........

Im just looking to have power at the bottom to around 80-100kmph, not too fussed after 100kms, because i never get to a track to race around, just racing cars at the lights sort of thing i dont really get over 100.
And well my conception of what torque is: pulling power, so im figuring, with higher torque - engine can pull my car faster - blistering low end acceleration :D

If he is after good midrange at the expense of a bit of top end (if you dont like revving much past 5k your fine) then the TC05 with a cooler and exhaust would be great,.

Yep, TC05 is quick to spool straight off. Give it an MPI and nice computer...
