jafo666 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Thanks for all the info, you lot are hilarious and seem like my kind of fun! Cheese on chips are good but not with curry sauce.... In fact I'm sure there's a law somewhere against that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichRB320 Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 If you want a responsive car with better torque from standard go for the 2.5l (no brainer) but as said above if you start modding heading towards the 400 bhp mark and higher boost be prepard for HG failure or piston ringland failure. I found out the hardway but now have forged goodies so its bullet proof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jafo666 Posted March 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 My last car was just a tad under 290bhp so id be happy with 350 to be honest.... Would that be ok with std internals? I know after a month though i'd end up getting the internals uprated lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Stealth- Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 If the cars got decent service history can't see it being an issue.Take your time, get down to the meets and get your head under the bonnet of a few that have been modded already.You'll soon pick things up with talking to the members and then you'll know what to buy when your ready.Next meet is the Sunday 7th April at the Clock Warehouse Shardlow. 12.PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
