Would be engine mate, I already know what id do to body lowerd -60mm on Coil overs, Speedlines would be first. But i dont know much bout the 1.6 engine, and what would be a good but not overly expensive way to tune it.

Most people go down the mantzel/dbilas inlet, exhaust system, cams and re-map route

Cool, sounds to be expensive though, Will Be full exhaust system, and induction it for now.
Then if i get the money Inlet manifold. Which one would you consider to be better? Mantzel or Dbilas or Lexmaul?
