An aftermarket exhaust system will help it breath better. I have a supersprint and would say that im happy with it (Its quiet) A lot of people on here mention jetex being good as well. I have also just had a stainless 4 branch manifold put on as well. I did notice a power increase and the car wasnt as sluggish either.

That might help...

The 2E bottom e will pretty much bolt straight on and still allow you room to flex in the future with upgrading cam shaft, etc. I'm mid dong this myself (I say mid doing it, the reality being that I'm currently stripping hte 2E down ready for some "work")

still got the original carb? Change it for a weber carb and you will feel a performance difference, if not an actual bhp difference.
