I wouldnt bother with the lexmaul as I felt it only gave a very slight power increase.
Power box is much better

Yes throttle bodies is best and if you do go that route and get Emerald management I have a good standard map

Well barney was interested, but still unsure what he's doing. But if he aint they will go with the car, as it stands there is no exhaust front to rear, but have a standard manifold, just need cat, centre and rear. Lowered springs will stay, may change the wheels but thats only cause i think theyre shoddy  . Otherwise its pretty much standard, but very clean for its age. Tbh though, i think ill have to repair to sell as thats the only way ill get the money i need back  .

Yeah think if i sell it running, itll be going back on some standard silver sport wheels the black ones let it down terribly  , they can go in with alloys and aluminium when we weigh a car in next. Think ones buckled anyway lol! Hopefully get it looking tidy and running in the next few weeks, so i can move on to something new

Yeah i know, just hope its before PVS. The bloody inlet will be a bitch though if its a c16, ive got the x16 bottom half i need but its tryna change it over with the head on, i can imagine its a nightmare, after doing headgaskets and head swaps on them, so awkward to work around the back ...

Sounds good! Atleast I won't be on my own going to the stand, last year I was so scared, first time ever meeting corsasport people, was too shy to talk to most of them though
