With your insurance, you really shouldn't be looking for 170bhp yet imo...obviously that's up to you though.
You are right Danny (though this ones about 135bhp iirc
) but I don't see why that makes a difference tbh, 70 is still 70 regardless of how quickly you get there. And even braking from 90 on the 283s wasn't noticeably better than the 266s, just gave more pedal travel and less sharpness, really wasn't impressed with them tbh! Though I haven't been impressed with any 306 brakes since the Golf, that only used 288s despite its extra weight but the brakes were awesome tbh, even the 180 map didn't make them seem worse so I don't agree with more power needing more brake...theres more to it than size, just buying decent pads would be a good start.
