hey guys, cheers for all the comments, i know about all the rolling road but im away on holiday that weekend

as for the price it cost as following

exhaust - 800
inlet - 1100
cams - 480
flowmaster - 180
remap - 400

so best part of 3k but hey its only money

and as for the facelift bumpers, i think it will look different when i put a debaged grill on and the cupra splitter

also got a price for the next 'stage' today, just need £2800

but that should take it to around 230bhp and be bomb proof

it just looks like any other corsa on the road in my eyes, the only thing that gives it away to being a 1.8 is the rear discs, no badges, nothing on it, ah well i love it
