What mods would you folks recommend that doesnt cost rediculus money?

At the minute Ive got a modified inlet manifold (one of the replicas off here), pipercross viper induction kit and sebring backbox.

Also need to get a service and a blowout sorted, which should help it slightly

Get a decat and a centre section.

Then a tubular exhaust manifold.

Also, for free performance, strip you car for less weight!

Oh yeah, sorry its stripped to the bare metal

Tubular exhaust manifold? First ive heard that mentioned, is that just the pipe that comes from close to the engine?

Decat would be a good idea, ive a mate whos a welder too that might come in handy.

i would get a 1.6 because you are approaching that standard power now and youve spent a fair amount, only other things you can really do to the 14xe is cam and remap

For the money a 1.6 would be the best increase and wont cost you a bomb on insurance if your still young. everything you have on your engine would transfer straight over, if you want to stick with the 1.4 then a unichip and de cat should be the next step
