Cheers. Picked my car up this afternoon its top stuff the dealer we got it off was amazing gave it a full service free of charge and changed pads aswell. Also put in some nice mats and cleaned it all again and met us half way so we didn't have to trek back into Sheffield centre
Anyway think I'm gonna leave it standard for a few months to see how it runs etc. and also then I'll be able to build up a bit of cash to spend on it

I realise it's a diesel so I'm guessing it's not going to be easy to tune but what about cams, dump valve, panel filter/induction kit etc.
Cheers
Also any ideas on how to just tidy up an engine bay and not neccesarily increase performance like alloy tanks, coloured hoses etc.
increase boost and fueling, fit a cone filter and a free flowing exhaust with maybe a larger intercooler

Cheers. By free flowing exhaust do you mean no cat or no mid box?

Isn't 22 psi a bit high for a stadnard engine and intercooler?
