Supercharger?  The R32 one advertised on here will fit.  £3k tho.

Sort the breathing out.

Sheild the air filter from the engine, and get a cold air feed going to it.

Stainless exhaust system, about 3" for true tuning potential.

re-map, and a decent recirculating dump valve on it.

Would a dump valve help a naturally aspirated engine?

My V6 4mo has been Superchipped.  Not sure if it makes a difference in performance as the previous owner did it and i've never driven another 4mo.  Good for an additional 12Bhp apparently.

Mine has PI springs and Koni dampers.  It is nice and stiff, makes it easier to rag around but the steering itself lacks feel.  Maybe an R32 rack would help there?  If you lower it too much, you'll be picking cigarette packets and small animals out of the plastic engine shielding infront of the sump!
