Newbie - MG ZS '250'

[MG_ZS_250]

Joined up a couple of days ago and thought i would let you know what i have on my drive!

Bought myself a ZS 180 for next to nothing and im having a fair bit of work done to her! Its having; Induction kit, exhuast system, cams, manifolds, throttle bodies and all being ran by DTA Pro8. Expected output to be around 250bhp. Should bring a smile to my face!

Also gotta say, for the money you would be hard pushed to buy a car of its age, with the toys it has and the performance and handling that the ZS 180 offers! Don't knock them untill you have driven one!

What exhaust system are you having done?

Look in the MG classifieds and you will see my year old exhaust for grabs at a bargin..

Email me if your interested.

Hey, I'm a ZS180 owner too. For what it is, I love the car. Am also looking to have some upgrades done. Not as much as you, but ind/exh/rechip. Have emailed Dreadnought up here in Scotland, but am waiting for a reply as to cost and typical power increase etc.

Mark.

Cool, the 180 responds very well to breathing modifications, you can expect to see almost 200bhp with just an exhaust and good filter. (Would have to be a full exhaust system + decat and good filter with plenty of cold air)

Oh and the exhaust system I am having is a Piper.

And what exactly is wrong with using DTA Pro8?
