don't do it, you'll ruin it. with lightweight cars like that, i reckon instant n/a power is the way to go.

Good luck Spadge, looks awesome

BUT

Be VERY careful as my mates Fiesta Cosworth had a longer wheelbase and it was STILL a right fucking handfull.

Depends on what you want it for, but for a twisty track it probably was better N/A

400bhp on boost (or whatever) is going to be a fucking riot though, im very jealous of that car
