ok guys n galls, i just wondered how much bhp i may have gained by doing the following,
Drilled Airbox
PVD Panel Filter
Removed Centre Silencer for straight pipe
Scorpion monza backbox
other than the above the engine is standard,
would i be right in guessing i may have around 80BHP now?

Prob about 3-4 over standard, max. Hopefully over the next few months i may be asking similar questions - mod's i'll have done will include THROWING AWAY the 1.2 16v, and maybe dropping in C20LET if I can source one for the right price.

I have done mine and it certainly feels a lot quicker and punchier through the gears... Everyone who has been in my car said it throws ya back in your seat more...Dont get your hopes up to much but you won't be dissapointed with the sound..Just make sure you do it right!

I've done those exact same mods, i'd say the panel filter was the only noticable performance difference. What does your C sound like? Since I removed the centre silencer on my B, (and i've got a Monza rear too), it sounds shit!
