Title: Re: Mods for £100...
Post by: dom on 16 January 2011, 15:00: There is a member on here (Rossabel?) who is based in Canada who was talking about shipping parts over to people in return for Euro spec parts. Might be worth getting in contact if anyone is serious about doing it :smiley:

LOL you're a G! :cool:
Title: Re: Mods for £100...
Post by: Stirring Moose on 16 January 2011, 22:03: I'd go for a decent air filter in the standard housing (K&N for personal preference). Of course you could just make for the bookies and hope to win enough to finance something a bit more daring! :grin:
