if ur motor is the 2.0 dohc ,theres not too much in the tuning department,yes you can get a k&n filter /induction kit,and a 4 branch ,decat the exaust,a nice freeflow s/steel zorst and u will feel a big diference, im sure the quick shift will fit,same box.

u have a 26mm anti roll bar opposed to the 28mm cossy one.

£/hp u be best finding a 24v cosworth engine and an xr4 bellhousing.
