this isn\'t gonna help you, but I thought you couldn\'t do stuff to your engine in France, or are they not very strict about it ?

Do you know what model you have or what mods it has at the moment ?

In france this is the sport version of 1993.... Twin turbo

Apparently no change has been made on it ....

I meant if you intend to modify it are the police etc quite relaxed about the law ?

What sort of BHp are you aiming for ?
Induction Kit
Exhaust
CAT Replacement Pipe
ECU

Would be a start

I\'d start with the following imo

Induction Kit
Performance Exhaust
Wider Downpipe
CAT Replacement Pipe
Apexi PFC ECU
Decent Cluch
Performance Track Pads
Have the wheels alignment done etc

well dependant on what model it probably has front and rear strut braces already
perhaps a vented bonnet if thats what you mean

if you are using it for track then a uprated Rad and I/C are probably a good idea
