Hi Hideo, Apologies for delay in replying to you - I can't move this thread into the Ford forum - the board is not that complex!
You are right that the engine is running pretty much at the maximum. I would avoid an induction kit like the plague on this model you will end up losing loads of low end torque - you are much better off with a panel air filter. A chip will make a big difference too but you are looking at losing some reliability.
Brakes can use some attention even if you only fit uprated pads (Greenstuff or blackdiamond) - I'll warn you now that unless the uprated pads are warm they will feel slightly worse than standard! If I were you i'd enjoy the car as it is for a while and then uprate it later when you know what the weak areas of the car are. |
