"Ant" ( mod ) is the man you need to speak to mate, he'll be able to talk you through what you require and produce a chip for you at X amount - cant remember exactly?

Ditch the idea of a K&N mate, will probably rob you of power rather than give you any gains. The most you'll get out of it will be an induction noise. Not any good in the real world though.

The zone chip and Big bore throtle body in the zone shop are well worth buying, ive fitted both to my sport and and the car runs alot better and pulls harder, deffo more power there and cheep mods you could do your self :D
