    Just be thankful it wasn't thatched. The price of straw has shot up in the last year.

    Depends how good the upgrade has been done. Some even claim to increase MPG as they just up the turbo boost, so the engine is doing the same work for more performance. Hence it's easy to get another 40-50bhp out of a turboed car, such as Wilmslow's turbo diesel focus.

    Those upgrades that simply squirt more fuel into the piston chambers to get more power are the ones to avoid!

    Agreed, and give more warning that you're about to push it too far on the corners.

    Stop winding the permies up DP - Wilmslow can't afford that one.
