Hi all,i have a 1990 4x4 ebony black cossie which i`m looking to make around 300bhp. Its not a daily driver so if its a bit nasty on fuel, thats ok. The only engine mod i can see on the car is a 4" exhaust,which sounds nice. There is a digital boost gauge which reads the car as producing about 12psi which i thought was a little high for standard. It has been subject to a rebuild in recent years and dosent appear to smoke badly or anything like that. I dont hammer the car, but i must admit i was a little dissapointed with the performance compared to my old 2wd saph, which was about 260bhp and felt damn quick!

I see a lot of parts for sale here second hand,but i dont really know if its advisable to put them on my own car with fuelling issues etc.I like the look and idea of something like a rs500 intercooler,but i dont know if this is a bit of overkill?

I`m certainly not doing this with a blank chequebook,but i`m not afraid to spend a bit to get it right.

Really appreciate all your replies,Vaughan.
