Congrats man looks very clean always had a soft spot for clean black v's, as for what to do next I think lowering it on either coilovers or shocks and springs would make it look even smarter. As for the problem of over boosting, you could try getting a hks actuator and set it at 11-12psi just below fuel cut mate, hope this helps.

nice looking V, as Joe said defo look into lowering it, If you look at SumoPower on ebay they do a HKS actuator for like £85 or something like that, or look at ToyTuning or TM-Developments.com

this is the description of the manifold:

This manifolds is made from the Highest Quality E316 STainless Steel, which makes it much stronger than E304 stainless, but at the same time the material's properties make it more flexible than E321 STainless, thus making it the best & most used choice for motorsports applcations.

This manifold is made to fit the stock EFI pipe & retain the oem TMIC, its piping is 32mm wide & 2mm thick.

jp performance intercooler it made hell of a difference bit of a pain in the arse to fit but get to keep the a/c

40mm lowering springs untill i can afford coilovers looks much better and stops the tramping (wheel hopping)
