what mods work well on these what sort of power can i get i have a budget of about 1500 the car already has exhaust and filter and a blufin

I believe a simple vernier pulley on the exhaust cam can see up to 10bhp increase due to the engine being de-tuned for emissions.

If you speak to Dave Colledge at Retro Ford he will be able to give you more information on this mod as he's done it on a couple of his customers cars and he may even stock the pulley.

cheers any more ideas

A big ol' shot of laughing gas. Cheap, simple and instant power that can be removed when you sell the car.

TBH the biggest gain for your money is Nos. There very little power to be found from the ST170 engine with the money you have to spend. Most modified ST170's are struggling to make more than 185bhp

I would look into a 25bhp nos kit if it was my money

throttle bodies should see a good increse as it dose on most cars , u can also do it cheap all u would need is some gsxr750 bodies a managemnt and cople of other odds and ends

It's Czech Mate

Thats a lot more than Ł1500....you'll need new management to run throttlebodies, they work of a TPS not MAF

Speak to blue st170 on the FFOC He is pushing about 210 BHP N/A And he comes to the same meets i go to and he is a top bloke. Here is his spec.
