so you want a noisy slow car?  Why don't you keep the mk3 nice, clean and original so when you've saved enough money you can px the mk3 and, with the cash, buy something nicer.

well yeah i dont go anywhere to speed in it, untill my insurnce go down there is not much i can do, there is prob about 4 places where i live where you can speed an i hardly go there. so if you have any ideas let me know but if not i dont want to know that a 1.4 is sh!t, coz i know that but its a start isnt it!

Heeey!

I had a 1.4 SE for my first car, they're pretty cool cars from factory so don't need much work to make them look good!

If you're looking for a bit of a 'roar' when you accelerate then an induction kit is the way to go.. or if it's a constant noise you're after, I'd suggest replacing the exhaust, whether it be backbox or full system :)

I had a Sportex backbox on mine which I purchased from a scrapyard for £15 and it sounded really really nice! Not like a chavvy jap can on a 1.1 Saxo!

Here's a pic of my old 1.4 SE



I kinda miss it, but then I look at my current car and think "that's better!"

stainless exhaust and air filter is your best bet.  If you've got no money drill the airbox.
