I don't really know, I have already done more than I was going to because it was going to stay standard... I would love to decat it and get it mapped but the legalities of that make it a no no really and the faff of MOT time... So I am thinking maybe sports cat down pipe and then a remap... It already has the prodrive sports cat but I suspect a aftermarket one would see better gains...

Haha I like them as well which means I am a chav also I guess... Stops the wing looking like it's going to wobble off as well!

I didn't think it was ever going to fall off to be fair it is just a pleasant side effect haha... It's just something I wanted to try and they are only stuck on :-)

Had a bit of a change of direction on the exhaust front when a piece of rare Japanese exhaust fell in my lap... It sounds much raspier than other scooby exhausts and doesn't have the same really deep rumble at low revs but more screams at the top end of the Rev range...

I've got a genome back box mated to a non-resonated centre section on my WR1. It's a great upgrade on the prodrive box if you don't want to be too antisocial. I keep all my original parts, so if I decide to sell they can be swapped back. Looks like a good example.
