Hey guys. I am looking at modifying my 1.4LT Holden Cruze to get more power and get it out on the track.

It currently has SL Springs, cat back exhaust and a Pod filter which often throws a check engine light even though the air flow sensor is still in it (not sure how to get around this) but I am planning on purchasing...

Compressor wheel upgrade
Larger Injectors
Larger Throttle Body
ECU and tune
BOV Upgrade (sutututu)

Let me know if there is anything else that is a must to either support these mods or just any other mods in general. Also would love to be pointed in the right direction when it comes to getting the rights parts. Sort of what to look for when purchasing this stuff if that makes any sense.

Thanks guys

Welcome Aboard!

Before you buy anthing else, seriously consider getting a tune first. Most bang for the buck. I have a Trifecta tune myself, but there is also BNR, ZZP and others.

Don't forget to introduce yourself and your Cruze here.

A tune will fix the engine light issues youre having, its probably airflow correlation error and likely means your fueling is off... Dont bother with throttle body upgrade, the stock one is 2.5" which is plenty unless youre planning on some SERIOUS mods. The stock ecu is pretty robust, especially the later ones and are easily tuneable. The wheel and injector upgrade will substantially increase your power levels and with the right ecu you can even run flex fuel to push it a bit more

What do you guys think of plug and play tunes vs a proper dyno tune? With the simple mods I have done will I get more for my money with just a plug in kit to give me some power and a bit more fun until I eventually do the higher mods?

Just buy the appropriate level tune. If yoiu only plan to have a stock vehicle, buy a plug and play, if you want to mod, buy the next higher level and basically get unlimited changes.
