Do you call your car Orca or Willy?

27bhp from an exhaust, induction kit and a remap??

Got a rolling road print out?

[On Time]

Fair enough, but still seems a big increase for a N/A 1.6. Have you had it on a rolling road or is it just a guess?

I would presume estimates based on what the manufacturers have claimed.

Thats what I thought, not saying its not possible, but that would be a very good increase for a N/A engine. I would have guessed you would need lumpyer set of cams (with the appropriate remap) + the current mods to get that power.

[SpeedyGonzales]

I prefer the car stock to be honest, but all to their own!

Yes your right that is est.. I simply copied and pasted the Spec list from another forum, i know that a car with same engine and modification got 143bhp, so they say 10 bhp from REMAP.lol. so i took that .lol... I should imagine its more the 146-148 range, just the power is better distributed now.

TBH all them engine mods are a waste of time now Done them when i was going to track the car, but then decided on exterior work, only bought the Brembos becasue got a good deal on them and think they look so sl£ggish, also beats puney breaks on the C2..

Blue headlights

Why did you re-spray it? What was wrong with the blue?

Is that not a lot of money you'll never, ever see again?

Nope not blue headlights, they is a slight tinge of blue and they are side lights, Dont even notice them when you have dipped lights on.

And i never resprayed it, it went into a bodyshop and the bodywork and respray cost 2k, then you just add all the extra wrk thats done nd cry, but im not bothered. I think sometimes wot am i doing then, i think im young i enjoy doing what im doing and there are alot worse things i could waste my money on. I know i will never get my money back in respect of what i have spent in total, and aint even finished yet, but i try not to think about that, i will strip her bk to as std as possible when i do eventually sell up.

[PulseTurbo]

I'd just say enjoy it. As long as you can justify spending the money on it, that's fine.

+1 for preferring standard though. Prefer to find something I like as standard rather than modify, but some people will just never like a car standard, which is fine.

Well, I didn't think that you actually painted it yourself, I was wondering why you changed a perfectly good colo....Oh never mind

Oh sorry mate, just you will be suprised how many ppl actually as did i spray the car.lol.. And the only reason i sprayed the car a different colour was because i was doing the smoothing of the car, then when i found out how much more to go 2-tone, i thought why not, something different and you will not see another c2 pass me like that.
