Agree with Neil. Having been on road driving training a month ago (due to very big accident) i would recommend it. Its all well and good having more power, but being able to use it correctly is more fun.

Once done this i would change the exhaust. Definatley the down pipe and the back back box to here your scooby talk.

1. Driver training
2. Brakes (crap on most normal scoobs)

Once you have the power and ability to stop, only then try to go quicker.

Forget all that garbage. What you need is a blown H6 legacy engine transplant. Once you've got 500BHP and don't have to worry about losing to RST's off the lights you can start worrying about going around corners and stopping.

Engine transplant don’t be silly there is no need. Mod it to the max with;
1, Nitrous injection with 300hp jets.
2, Bin the exhaust but keep the down pipes.
3, Take the air filter off and bin that too.
4, Slick tires or ones with no tread left.
5, Mix the fuel 50% petrol 50% methanol for 140 RON fuel

That should get you started . . . .

Christ dont scare him/her off!

Just take it sensibly and research each mod carefully before doing it. ie see how it will alter/affect the engine etc.
