Default my s2 rst project it all begins

hey havent posted any pics of my car yet got loads of new engine bits in the post heres some i took today will post a few more once all the new stuff is fitted

pleanty going on here at the moment so keep an eye out
was going to sell it but the last few months because it was never going to be the same as my last s2 but have decided to finish it off a

am thinking about ditching the wheels tho really not sure

am also thinking about binning the cvh head and going zetec but my car is still running a dizzy so the only way i can c i can do this is by either binning the cossie managment and getting omex or ordering the msd wasted spark conversion for the cossie stuff any opinions welcome


what do you all think?

Bin the bonnet and the chrome bumper mouldings and it be a good starting point. As for the cossie management i would stick to it and spend the money somewhere else, there isnt any reason to if its working ok.

As above Bin the wheels get yourself a set of comps or decent 17's nothing chavvy and then get it mapped at a reputable tuner NMS, MSD all spring to mind due to the cossie management.

Car looks like it has potential, but agree ditch the bonnet and chrome strips and replace with normal black ones.

As for dizzy etc, why would u need to ditch the cossie management?? U can run a coil pack on cossie management, especially so if u have a L8 or P8 ecu.
