[Arron_t6]

I've recently purchased my first ever VW T6 and I love it I am just wondering if anyone can help me I would like to try and get some more horsepower it is a 102bph manual without putting a 6 speed gearbox which I need what else can I do apart from a remap and a bigger intercooler I am also after a set of zrh-3 wheels please help guys

Welcome!
That's a stunning looking van and I like those wheels. But anyway, to answer your question, you should be very careful before increasing the power, the 5 speed box is not as strong as the 6 speed box and some remapping companies won't remap vans with the 5 speed box. I know that some forum members have remapped vans with 5 speed boxes but you need to make an informed choice.

Yeah it looks ok for now but going to look sick ready for next year's show due to myself being a paint Spraying she going in for a big paint job and the wheels on it r not to bad but need to find zrh-3 if u can help me out there was a set on here but sold and your question to do with a gearbox I have been in contact with dark side development recently to do with a 6-speed gearbox and they strongly advise myself to change the gearbox to a 6 speed which I will do but the big question what power could I be looking

I think a remap on a 5 speed maybe okay if they don't go mad on the torque.

This is most regarded remapper for our engine. There are some videos on eBay from them.
