I have a K16 factory 996tt tip just has new exhaust, diverters and bmc filter and FVD flash, looking for more power, but dont want to spend much $ for a few reasons, I drive the car as a normal daily driver, what would be the best and cheapest set up for a tip car? thanks

16G and a flash is probably the least expensive way to get more power on a budget. I'm considering going that rout myself but still haven't decided.

I thought the recent thread about the billet 16's with dyno said they were the equal to 24/18's. Did I read that wrong?

That's the biggest reason to spend a little extra money to make sure it's 'right'...

+1 on turbos. The other way to achieve a faster car is weight reduction.

What would be the "expected" HP/TQ increase in moving from stock k16 with flash to a K16G, upgraded flash and assume 5 FPR?

Is it noticable?
