Nothings free mate

Start with a panel filter, Green or K&N are supposed to be good, then go exhaust and a decat if you can be bothered with changing it every time you go for an mot. Then get some decent spark plugs, a fuel pump and a remap and your off

Well, everybody will answer that question differently.

I'd say NGK PFR7B's but I'm sure somebody else will recommend another type.

I have PFR7B's and running 400+hp no problem.
