So what would you do? Basically I have this money to spend on the ENGINE.

At the moment it stands at:

K&N
Dump Valve
Samco's
Standard zorst
everything else standard

Oh and I really only have £300. Looking for ponies per pound as I have a track day on the 22nd.

(first stupid post - before someone else does it ) :

Send the £300 quid to me as it is exactly the amount I need to fit my bodykit (which is sitting in my room

Tim

Failing that mate get a straight thru zorst

[The Gilly]

wicked! I'll send it today!

[Fezzy Turbo]

with £300 you could get yourself a nice Magnex or Mongoose exhaust

[Tom SX]

yea mehinks this would unleash more horses for the money, dunno how much a chip costs but they give bigish increases as well, bar bolting on a turbo but you'll need to add another 0 to the 300 to do that i reckon

[EvilFranky]

Definatley go for an exhaust mate, getting an induction kit and zorst first, are the unwritten rules of modifying...magnex or mongoose only though!

Later

[The Gilly]

[Phil Si]

TBH you *might* be better taking it down a decent torbo'd Ford tuners and getting them to check you engine over - if it's going for a track day you'll be wanting to know it's in good condition, and they'll probably also be able to tell you what's best for the engine.

Oh, and a Kent or Piper turbo cam kit will give more power than a free flow exhaust without taking the head off but for the best gains hop in there and grind your exhaust ports out.

Powerflow do make rather fit systems. Go for a 2.5" bore from the downpipe back with two of the largest boxes you can fit under it. At the last box, have the pipe running into it angled at around 10 degrees to give it a verrrrry nice growl. Remove centre box as required

After all that I'd honestly say that in my opinion a chip is the best thing to get with sort of money.

IMO that is!
