What next ??
« on: April 06, 2010, 10:26:27 am »
What can I buy for the car thats worthwhile ? I'm completely board at the minute ! I have a dp and cat, intake, fuel pump, map to suit... I'm getting some ds2500's soon, i've lowered the car and got new wheels...

All the fun is getting new bits for me and I don't know what to do now :sad1:

Wow! You have a very advanced case of Obsessive Modding Disorder!



Just lowering doesn't really do that much performance-wise, IMO, so I'd consider proper coilovers.

Better brakes? Intercooler?

Whats a vbox?

I fancy a sat nav actually, the mfd2 can be had quite cheap now and will improve the dash a bit...

Keep thinking about getting the roof, mirrors and lower front lip done in black, but don't know if it'll look ott :rolleye:

Vbox looks interesting.

I keep thinking about intercoolers.. I assume it will benefit me much more in summer...
