If you had a spare £1000.....

Postby huzzy » Wed Sep 15, 2010 12:25 pm

.....and wanted to spend it on your standard WR1, what would you spend it on and what would you buy?

Performance?
Handling?
Styling?

I don't know, I'm stuck between going for the cosmetic looks i.e. window tints, splitter. Or between a decent backbox and a remap.

I've just had a RCM downpipe with a decat Cobb midpipe and backbox plus RCM induction kit and a custom remap and it now sounds and drives like a different car....so I would say performance before cosmetics IMO :D

I'd get a few little stone chips and dings sorted, a detango and a rear window spoiler. That would leave just enough money for a slap up meal at Mrs Miggins pie shop. :lol:

standard looks are fine to me...if you wanna change then you should of bought a Sti instead mate...

go for simple mods...exhaust and remap as above really.

or blow it all and a little more on a new ecu!
