Last modification: I got a 'Performance Package 1' kit installed from Engine Dynamics (formally BB Tuning) which consisted of a full Piper exhaust system, Green panel filter and remap. To be honest I can't feel any power increase from it but after a few hundred miles the exhaust is starting to open up and sounds rather nice now

Next modification: Think it's time for a brake upgrade, so I'm gonna get some Brembo HC discs and DS2500 pads up front in time for hitting a track day!

Matched inlets and a remap? Maybe see a difference then.

Heard nothing but good things about those brakes. Used my 182 on track on standard brakes but with dot 5.1 fluid. Was fine.

Just put DS2500s and Bremno HC discs on the Twingo, done around 100 miles, so far much better than the Renault OEM

Next is bucket seats and harnesses

Precisely why I went 16. 15 would just be like ishould have went 17. And if I went 17 I would be thinking it was going to break all the time.

I'm not sure I want to take the power modifications any further tbh, thanks for the advice though. Wouldn't mind getting it rolling roaded one day...

No do not, makes car laggy. 16 is good compromise but I was more than chuffed with 15.

17 really needs bigger injectors.
