Bought the car (it's pretty standard), done the service what next?

Suggestions please for add-ons and cheap performance improving gadgets #-o

I'm thinking maybe some nice new wheels?
Maybe an induction kit?

Get a nice HKS or K&N air Filter...

Fit a good set of tyres and alloys. Goodyear Eagle F1's are reccomended and 16"+ works well. Although 18" reduces control etc

If it's an NA, and looking at the pics I think it is, why not think about the ICE system, some behind seat subs and an AMP work well...

Other performance mods include a bodykit, mix & match.... Get a nice spoiler :)


Performance wise, not sure for the NA... I have one... Don't have much else on :( ](*,)

Just the usual really:

Induction kit go for either Apexi or K&N (K&N is cheaper)

exhaust up to you there are a fair few out there. Mongoose is reasonable and not too loud.

Wheels, if you must upsize then 16s would be better for handling, but if you just want looks then 17s. 18s are a bit too much and really won't help the handling, but some like them.

I have a white mk2 as well.

First thing I did was get the crystal side and front indicators fitted, makes the car look a lot more modern.
