RE: Post Your Car's Modifications
I've only got a 440 1.8 Xi but I've tried to get it a bit quicker!
Just a few thing decat exhaust pipecross free flow air filter cold air feed NGK racing spark plugs and ignition leads Optimax (when I can afford it! Not looking good at the Moment) It's not as impresive as the other cars but I can get 130mph out of it and it's quick enough to 60 to scare off some so called hot hatches!
