The nearest rolling road for you is Well Lane at Batley, just South of the M62 and West of the junction with the M1.They will also talk you through some of the options open to you.
You need to decide what you want to do and how much you have to spend. The usual strarting point is an exhaust, complete with down pipe and a K+N panel filter will allow you to retain cold air breathing but it needs you to decide how far you want to go.
Give us some more info and I will try to point you in the right direction.

I'm hosting a rolling road day there in October (12th) and there's another one this Sunday (14th).

Basically it's loads of Scoobies seeing what they can kick out.

If you get chance, come down to have a look. You'll get the cahnce to see Well Lane and also quite a lot of modded Scoobs and owners who can give you some good advice on what to do/what not to do.

The bad thing about talking to a tuner is that a lot of them will just try to sell you stuff. The car owners have nothing to gain with their advice, so it is often more honest and valuable. Harvey is a good guy to talk to and will be at both events. He has a VERY heavily modded car, so it's worth coming just to see that.

Cheers

Rich
