I really fancy fitting a K+N Induction Kit and Magnex downpipe to my 99 5 Door (just fitted Magnex backbox 6/4 oval) but Im worried if the ECU will need re-tuning, but as Oddball says "I only drive 'em I dont no what makes 'em work" (Sorry for Kellys Heroes ref!!) If so Im looking for any one who can do this for me in the Wigan/Manchester area.
Ill also need them to swap the downpipe when it comes to its 1st MOT in May

Forgive me for not being up to the Job myself but the Minis and Spitfire I used to tinker on in my early days didnt cost me thousands when I messed up, which I did.... Often!

So, is there anyone who can help/advise and give details of posible costs?



ps: anyone else think Kellys Heroes is a Top film

Tried Subaru Manchester [LINK]http://www.subaru-manchester.co.uk/[/LINK]? They may be able to help.

How do you find the 6x4 oval? Considering one myself but want to know if it sounds OTT or what. Does it drone on the motorway?

I live near Haydock racecourse so could pop round and have a listen sometime.

Try Prestige and Performance in St Helens (01744 757555) - if that's not too far out of the area.

Where r u I could arrange to meet next Wednesday evening if this sounds ok, somewhere in the middle?
