Right, I've decided on a Rolling road remap and a K&N 57i Induction Kit. By my reckoning that should put me on 135-140bhp which is plenty for now. I shall probably fit a new exhaust later on as I have not long changed the back box I have, so it shall have to do for now. I have one or two more general questions tho.
1) How will the above mods change the characteristics of the car? I'm not too concerned about the handling, as it already feels like it has less power than grip and cornering ability, but what about traction? Will my brakes suddenly feel vastly underendowed (I suspect not as I assume they are identical to the 16v and even VR6 brakes)? How about the engine note? Will it get a bit more characterful?
2) There appear to be two 57i Induction Kits for my car. Do I need the Mass Air Sensor version or the LE Flow Meter version for a 1997 8v?
3) Will the mods help the smug smile dissapear from Mk2 owners who attempt to have a go?
