id rather do Cosmetic mods rather then Performance mods. Much prefer what youve done their Raj with your rear end Mod. Theres

always a chance of Breaking things when you performance mod, as Hurdy and Redrobin know very well. You take a chance.

Congrats Steve on the good result and problem sorting !  :smiley:

You guys with performance mods are making me feel jealous !!!  :grin:

oh, and i think some of us are equally jealous of your mods  :cool:

Yep remapping an is ED30 great and gives some very good results but like Shaun says your recent cosmetic mods are very very :cool:

Depends how far you take the modding I suppose.. I'm the opposite to a certain degree. Although I do like subtle cosmetic mods, much prefer having an extra stable full of horses when my right foot commands..  :evil:

....Depending on how far you go with performance modding, I don't think the chances of 'breaking' things is particularly greater. Some mods actually prolong the life of your car (PTFE bushes for example). A stainless steel exhaust will last longer than a stock one :evil:

Being constructed from so many varying components, it's a wonder that more doesn't 'break' on a car than it does.
