cheers joe
 
  Turbos.
Will look good with those mods, i'd de-spoler it too!

I would prepare to discover you don't have 150bhp with those mods lol. The filter will gain nothing and a cat back say 3bhp.
 
it wont last long all modded up at storbes hall mate, keep it in the big carpark!!

i really like them, would consider one myself... prix u pay?

ano mate... i had my tyres slashed on the clio last week.. fucktards... also the wheels wobble when i drive on that car.... it looks rediculus will need to fix it asap!!!

as for the mods, the exhaust and induction is really effective with mx5s so ive got the starts out the way :) heavy engine mods will be done when i have all the funds :D

i straight swapped it for the clio :)

I love them.

As Bert said, that'll be no where near 150.

It'll look mint decked, huge neg camber, de-spoilered and smoothed.

Nice choice

Oh right.. just thought the insurance would sting you on this if you found it hard to run but no disrespect on the parental lending, I've experienced a bit of borrowing myself :)

How did you find the upgrade from the clio?
