not sure on the 17's as i quite like the stock sri alloys.

was thinking an induction kit and a custom exhaust of some kind.


dont really wanna bother with tuning the lump was i wanna wait till later this year till i get my 1.8 - was thinking maybe some nos for some cheap easy power, cause i could transfer this to the new lump.

course they are, but they make a tasty noise

not a big fan of bodykit to be honest. from the 600 you'd spend buying the kit, and then another 600 fitting and spraying, i'd rather of spent 1200 quid on engine work!

prefer the subtle look tbh.... not really into motors that look like they can do 200 mph and then you show them the power of your 1.2 16v

not sure on drilling the air box and letting all that hot air in from the engine bay

am undecided on waht to do about a filter at the moment.



the list so far is:


1. Full system from Lexmaul.
2. Tints.


thats it so far
