milage = ware on engine components so accelaration can incrase slighty thru the slackness |

I'd say put the standard backbox on it, with a decent de-cat of the correct bore, then ditch the K&N and put a panel filter or standard filter in. Get rid of the 16's and put some nice 15's on, then give the engine oil and oil filter a change, change the spark plugs and give the gearbox oil a change. |

i think you need tht de-cat on defo, replace the cone filter for something like a viper or replacement panel filter, give it a full service inc cambelts, tensioners, and water pump, use NICE oil not CRAP please lol, wheel size personal preferance, tbh it might not have been re-mapped for the fse so et it mapped for the sake of it and see if its nippyer |
