I did, what I had to do, and saw it through, without exemption

I had a Leon cupra r which I did a few bits and pieces to - upgraded disc and pads, some mods and remap. Got it to around 270bhp (estimate, not dyno'd). Biggest regret was compromising driveability for power as even at this level the car used to torque steer quite badly.

last Scoob took it from 177 to 302 in a bit by bit way ( as I could afford it).

I regret not being able to get it "up there" quicker.

New Scoob is 367 from day 1, I wonder what more I can do, before I regret not doing more mods

regards
