    Very simple mod - no cost - Modify your airflow meter.

    More extreme - ?350+ Get a blydenstein 'B' pack head for 12-14% increase in bhp.

    Go for a power boost valve for about ?100. But after that i'd agree with MC a new head and cam would be the next thing.

    Airflow meter modifications won?t help. I don?t know why all keep saying that it will give you X bhp gain.
    As the name says it measures the air going to motor and only thing you can do is to change it to bigger one. It?s lot easier to modify you ECU.
    The answer to you question: Buy smaller tires and throw your ICE away.

    Thomas, If you mod it right, it makes drivin a whole lot better! See the post about airflow meters, and read the book 'How to Tune and Modify Bosch fuel injection'. If you want to chat about it
    e-mail me.

    P.s. I agree about small wheels and no ICE. Most cost effective performance mod I did was loose the back seats and trim!
