Get your details right for a start. Before you buy the wrong parts. The 180 was never made in Diablo Red, it's Flamenco Red, and if it is actually Diablo then you've bought a 138.

Oops my bad! Saw the two reds and thought mine looked like the Diablo, never mind. But it is a 180, I'll post a picture later on this afternoon

No plans as of yet, just get used to the power jump, 1.4 16v to this is quite a jump, but I'm sure the future will bring car parts! Possibly 4-1 manifold, uprated cams, and then a map maybe, thinking of having it terracleaned in the new year, and the wheels could do with a refurb after the winter too, but other than that probably not!

had my old 180 mapped made a nice diffrence in how it drove, bhp wise you will gain very little but it will drive alot smoother and pick up is a tad cleaner/quicker.
and agree red looks the best

Very nice car mate, would love to see some more pics of it once it's detailed. Hopefully I'll have one too in a couple of years!
