springs, 22m anti roll bar, drop links and powerstation geometry- then you can't blame the car for how quick you go round bends

you get used to speed very quickly

Goodwill (or something similar?) 335mm brake kit + prodrive springs + laser geometry.

If you fit it yourself and have a laser geometry afterwards, you should be roughly on budget.

Give it to me ?

Performance - If you're not worried about warranty you could go for a bit more power, replacement ECU with Tek3 remap possibly (sell the PPP one) - full decat etc, I'm no expert on this but I'm sure there's plenty of threads on this..

Handling - Otherwise as above - Brakes and springs/geometry

Styling - maybe some 18" wheels ? Some nice prodrive ones being sold at the moment in the FS section . Or maybe a high level rear wing, front splitter/spoiler ?

thanks for the recommendations...would like to get a bit more power, ive heard that i can take a bugeye upto 280 bhp without having to upgrade major engine parts or brakes...might go with the decat and ECU replacement for a start
