Two grand on a TVR = best suspension you can get for that sort of money, and proper alignment. Best money you'll ever spend on the car. smile

Hi V8 Frog,

My two penneth.... Firstly, I am no expert on tuning the EFI Rover lump so will not give you any advice on that matter... however, what I would say is that given that you are undecided as to your long term goals with regard to engine power/performance and your means of achieving it (bigger capacity ? supercharger ?) spending money on tuning mods now (money burning a hole in your pocket ?) may well result in purchasing bolt on goodies that might not be useable/appropriate on your final engine plan.. My advice (for what it's worth) would be a)save the money towards your ultimate engine build, b)follow the advice above on improving other aspects of the car which will better prepare it for that high performance engine that you will ultimately install, or c)stick the dosh into your 'things that might go wrong fund'...

Whichever way you go, I wish you all the best with it.....

tks for ur nice comments.i think for the time being i will keep my engine in as i had it almost since new.i know what i did to it and i know the mileage is real.i always warm it up nicely and never trash it during the hot day that we have here.use only Vpower racing and castrol edge+tufoil and change the oil every 5000km.the thing i noticed with this engine is that u dont need big hp to make it move.its all in the torque.so i a pretty sure the new cam and MA chip will be nice to have.why ROB never reply to me.guys help me contact him please.ROB my car needs u!!!
