Thanks leet and I'm glad it's inspiring to you.
I'm guessing you meant to write Jez & not Jess, ...yes it was my car Horsham Developments had just done. Yes it's a lot of money to spend and yes I could have bought a faster car in the first place with the cash I'm sure but it wouldn't be so unique then or look like the Zed which is the car I love.
Even before having the supercharger fitted I always looked forward to driving the car & fondly look back at it every time I park it. It's so much better now and tbh the sound it makes alone is worth the money I spent imo.
If you can buy some parts used but in good condition then that will definitely help you keep costs down as will fitting the supercharger yourself if you have the time & can afford to have the car off the road. I really couldn't as it's my daily driver & tbh pretty glad I didn't as it was a much nicer experience dropping the car off with 290bhp odd then picking it up with over 400bhp.
I just wish i had the skills
