myself.. I will be going for a Wortec header and exhaust combo with a remap (should be good for around 470bhp)
some 20" black wheels
and some green paint here and there
So what you got planned for your cars this year ??

I might buy an engine, I'm not going to do anything with it. Don't want to rush things no do I...
As for the daily driver, I think it's time to get a 1.9 Punto or a 1.9/2.0 Alfa 147. The RX7 idea is out the window

Fancy getting something different tbh, but if I keep it I may finally get the boot resprayed and uprate the brakes and that's about it.
Oh and I need to get a front splitter ordered

Well, I have no ideas yet, my new motor i'm yet to pick up is spotless, I could have a remap to get it to 250bhp and squeeze some more torque out of it but would I want to?
Its got a mint black leather interior, nice wheels, m tech bodykit I dont know how much more I could do. If I could afford it I could have it turbo'd or supercharged coz the motors only got 65k on it, but I cant warrant throwing lots of money at a perfectly good standard car

Get the new spec engine built up (awaiting parts)
Fit an oil cooler
Get the interior painted
Get the engine bay painted
Get roll cage painted
Have arches repainted
Get it mapped
Dash flocked
Remove/reroute wiring
And just drive it....

i love racing pumas, they look so good on the road.
but only want to spend about 1500 quid on one as we already have a decent deposit and don't want to eat in to it any more
shame really, but it'll only be for a while.
