I think my M Coupe used to have a set of your exhaust tips on, once upon a time. Unfortunately removed & sold before I purchased it.

I could supply you with a set.
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

Loving it, especially since I've added a supercharger to the mix :-)
Very nice witch kit? And what are the numbers?
G-Power kit, some FIC injectors and a tune from Severn Tuning - just dyno’d at 320, which I’m more than happy with :-)

Next on the list is cooling (intercooler or water/meth) and then maybe a smaller pulley, but not for a while.

Plenty of power left in the b30 for it. They are usually happy until 450 bhp on stock compression and head studs. Cold air and fuel will be your limiting factors.

Used to have a black XS which I loved. Swopped it for a Fiesta XR2 which wasn’t a patch on the XS. Then moved to a 205 1.9 GTI which was one of the ‘most fun’ cars I have ever owned. :D

They really are. But in true monkey form! It’s currently off the road 😂I brought it after it had spent 20 years off the road in a garage. Then my garage and tools burnt down. Then the house move. I just haven’t had time. Next year I will be using it with the local motoring club.

They are such a pure fun simple driving fun. GTIs are just out of my budget.
