forget the decat as there is no gain, and a remap doesn't do much really.

What sort of budget are you looking at?

you can't remap MG-R's on stadard ecu can you? You need to upgrade to Emerald or DTA is the other one?

BMC CDA induction kit would be a start, Not cheap but most people say they give best results.

take the exhaust cam out, send it to Piper for a regrind,
then port and polished and matched head,
throttle bodies,
the list is endless, its just about budget.
