i agree,mines a lot faster now the repsol stickers are on...........mind you,the biggest performance gain was with the abarth badges...... :cool:

i thought about putting some motor sport decals on but i dont think i could have handled that much of a power gain.

its a well known fact that go faster stripes reduce the air friction on the paint work and thus provide upto 10bhp more Barry.

so working on that equation if i fit two sets will i get double the gain? and can i mix colours without making it too powerfull? also i have been looking at sunglasses to finish it all off what sort of style would you recommend without being too dangerous.?

I'd go with the two set Mick. but be careful where you stick them, make sure you balance the sides up. you don't want to be driving down the road lopsided, it would spoil the handling

another thing to consider to complete the package is chrome exhaust trims round, oval, twins and now turbo trims. these are really good for 10 to 15 bhp

as for the sun glasses go for mirrors, they must work as all sports men/women use them i.e. cycling, sailing, motor racing etc' got to be good for another 3 bhp.

thats true! why dont they ever have a nice pair of rayburn aviators!

i'd also remove any wing mirrors mick, as they cause drag.

Also if your interested ive got a power boost chip (Ã‚Â£55) which can give you upto 20bhp, i bought it from an add in the back of maxpower. Looks strikingly like the little resistors we used in electronics at school

i am a little worried of using "aviators" as i already have a red bull tin wrapped around my coil and as you know red bull gives you wings , i dont want to be flying as i dont have a pilots licence.

Chris Lakin · « **Reply #13 on:** May 23, 2007, 04:38:36 PM »

since when have you worried about licenses?? you dont even have a driving license

:cool:

my stickers didnt go too well today... only got a couple to apply, rest had got too old to stick proper like

so only gained around 5hp instead of 10

then lost about 15hp due to sticking wheel cylinder!
