Hi mate, I was the one that wasn't bald you were chatting to Saturday. Plenty of help available here, definitely do all mods you're planning before you get the remap done, as this will tie them all together nicely.

Welcome.

Pop over to GRN for a chat. They look after Santa's S60R as well as a few others members cars.

They can offer you various different types of remaps, exhaust, FMIC and air intake options.

Welcome,

as above stage 2 - exhaust air filter and remap are acheivable within your budget and are off the shelf products.

you may or may not be able to squeeze in a downpipe from graeme, but this may require a sqecialist map.

Welcome to the forum... these guys know what they are talking about!
