Such revision bordem, wow, many plans
To do list
-Finish exams
-Fix rust on roof by the aerial
-Stick on side skirts
-Check timing properly
-Oil change to some nice Shell helix which will hopefully calm the horrible tapping recently developed
-In the event of timing being off get it to specialist to have vvc properly checked up
-Maybe fit a HID kit and get set up at a garage, with h7r bulbs so not nearly as much glare for other road users
-Exhaust manifold off and tidy up internal welds and heat wrap
So I've come to the understanding that big power will never happen on my budget, unless I give up on summer holiday/track time plans which makes the tuning pointless.
Looking online I've found a guy selling uprated exhaust and inlet vvc cams for around £400 which apparently are a straight fit with the standard ecu. He's set up near Rotherham which is relatively close. However bang for buck it is pretty pricey especially since he doesn't have any confirmed gains.

For this years track sessions though I would like to be running 160 +/- 5 with the added bonus of light strippage. Last years sessions I was running around with a 6x9'd parcel shelf, amp and spare wheel in the boot.
