Silver Venom

Silver Venom

What modifications could be done to the engine to get more BHP and a higher crusing speed. i.e the punto is only really comfortable at 70mph and if you push it it puts extra strain on the motor over long distances.

I read a post that said about detuning and how the engine could be re-tuned back to 110BHP... is this actually the case?
 
To reply about the alloys i love em too! Classic choice for me and the only ones i could really pictuire on the car.... however as i said they will be upgraded when the tyres go bald.

What would you guys suggest? i was thinking Asia tech (wolfrace) katana alloys possibly 17" depending on effects on acceleration and rubbing?

Quite like the new pro race black and crome alloys too? any better or alternate suggestions?

dude black chrome alloys on that would look s**t hott!!! (y) especially if u tinted the windows,

personally i would stick with 16's so not to mess with the acceleration too much, and some uprated shocks to get the most out of the drop an u will b well away.

im really thinking of removing the stickers now! lol...
if u want my honest opinion about stickers then i actually think they can look good if done well, some black ones would look better.

Momo
Yoko
Spax
Peco
K&n

It's not that bad, this is what I would do:

*Fit springs
*Remove all stickers
*Drive for 3 years to build up NCB
*Buy something fast with all the money you would have p*ssed away adding plastic add-ons from halfrauds. (Must have spent K's on my first car adding bits and bobs, I should have left it standard)

:)
 
The first car's your learning curve. You can say yeah- ive been there, done that spent too much money on a car that doesnt really deserve it, but its good for the experience. Ive done it but I dont regret it, ive even turned into a chav for fitting lexus lights and Abarth badges when my Puntos not a Lexus or an Abarth :chin:

The next car im going to get is gonna be the opposite of my Punto- a wolf in sheeps clothing ;) (Yeah alright its gonna be a TDI but still.....)
 
I wouldnt bother spending anymore on it as sed! Save your cash £££ and either enjoy it on whateva or save it up for when you hit around 3years NCB and get somthing abit more tasty! Seems uve got quite few mods neways; not a bad lil motor reminds me of my first car! I had the same car on tsw venon, 40mm drop n peco exhaust but grey colour! (y) (my 1st car below)
NB:if you use a hot airgun or hair blow dryer you should be able to peel your stickers off if uve decided you dont like em!

college is first, but my car is my passion..... definatley stay off the drugs N **** its too fecking expensive!

cheers for all the feedback fiat forum!

ps. whats the rabbit binki about? :confused:
 
Man why don't you take those wheels off and fit some Abarth 15's, then lower it more (y)
A bit impractical here but put a straight through sports exhaust on my cinq with a de-cat and it cruises nicely at 85-90, and it'll go all the way upto 110> (120 downhill! :D)

Welcome to the forum! :)

P.s rabbit is the forum mascot as far as i'm aware :confused:
