HAs anyone got any pics of anything like this in the engine bay?

Dont talk to Kaxe, he'll end up trying to convince you to supercharge . What you do to it depends on what you want out of your car. If your just trying to free the engine up a bit, you want a K&N and maybe a new manifold. Then add a new exhaust, cams and remap. Don't remap until you have finished modding otherwise it's a waste of money. Unless your minted I suppose If you still want more power have a look at a supercharger and/or throttle bodies but consider that with this much extra power you'll need a new clutch, brakes and ideally a new diff

Or to keep things simple, just do what Steve suggested and go to Mountune!

I'd buy mountune with my money, they always hit the power output they state. Everyone seems to be a bit hit and miss about what final power output you have

I'm here, the MT exhaust is rorty but not loud or boy racer, no way I wanted that and now I have it very pleased it turned out fine. Off throttle as quiet as standard car, only roars when you plant it, motorway completely fine below 70mph, bit noisy 70 and above but then you will like the singing manifold as you zip past someone with a short prod of the fast pedal and listen to the tunes it makes.
Good news is that the current MT exhausts are Miltek and quieter than the original "CLF" systems that us early moutuners got first time around.
