On the weekend i am attending a rolling road day.
What can i do to boost the perfance of my standard-ish Si??
It cant affect the insurance though.

I could really do with the help, as i am attending with:
Rover 600 (2 litre)
Rover 600 Ti (turbo 2 litre)
Saxo Vts (Tuned to f$%*)
Mini ( 2 litre 16v, tuned to F$%*)
Golf GTI's
Various other Saxo VTS,
330 bhp cossie.
+ 1 or 2 other not so powerful, but not crap other cars.

Although i fear i am going to have the least amount of power, i dont wanna be really shown up.

Don't forget to try Superplus or LRP and an octane booster.

Si's are little gits to make them go faster though :sad:

Meeeoww! :wink:

I shouldn't think so, as long as it's Super Unleaded and any octane booster says it's okay for cats on the side of the bottle, as many do, since they're aimed at Rice Rockets with cats which need 100 octane (!!! :eek:)
