Grande Punto Multijet - the story so far...

I picked her up in august last year, I told myself I wouldn't do anything to this one. LOL.

When the GP was a virgin and untouched, complete with leather interior...




Now on to the mods:

-Red Dot Remap
-GSR induction kit
-Lowered 40mm on novitecs
-Standard wheels in anthracite
-Blackened front grill
-Seat Leon Cupra R front splitter
-De-tangoed etc
-Private and resized plates

At the moment its knocking out 187bhp and 314ft lbs at the fly. Quite pleased and it goes well, chatters and dumps nicely too.

Recent pics at a zsoc meet:

(i'm in the blue top)









On the way back from red dot: Ed (right) and tom (left):



Heres the RR printout and the thread on the prototype GSR kit for anybody who is interested:

@ J1ppers, remove the quote please


@ Kris - She looks stunning mate, but... where are the under bonnet pics, and interior pics? Gawd! lol

The wheels really do suit, and the splitter just seems to finish it off nicely. How did you find the vinyling? Pain in the ass aint it

Sterling job though, looking forward to seeing it in the flesh if I make it to Brooklands.

Tom

Just noticed, in the "Stock" pic, the GP is so stunning, it's caused a man to collapse

A lad called wilNFS on puntomk2 is selling a brand new one that he bought from ABS but has never fitted.

Yea i'm pretty happy with the power, I still want more though

Clutch seems fine and I'm sure a custom one wouldn't be hard to source

Love what you've done to it, the blackened gril along with the wheels and alloys looks gorgeous against the red. Need to let us see the interior etc.
Really nice job man!
