    Smile What's Next

    Any suggestions as to what I can do next. The car is a '97 S70 T5. Rica 310, strut brace, polybushed, JR panel filter and drilled air box, re-located horns, cat back freeflow s/s exhaust, 40mm lowered springs, bailey dump valve, mag leads, 17 inch Ronals and Tomcat front end.....may change it back to standard......any ideas on the price of a standard bumper? And any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    Hello.

    personally, i would have a R front bumper, remove the dump valve, consider a 100 cell cat, uprate the suspension further including anti roll bars, change the brakes to cheeky brembo numbers and have a Custom RICA..........

    That should keep you busy

    P.S i love sponge bob!

    Depends on what you are after, performance or cosmetics?

    Performance

    Not really into cosmetics, hence my wanting to go back to standard....brakes would appear to be sensible step....

    If you're up for power hikes then the 19T/Stage II RICA is IMHO well worth thinking about, particularly if your car has less than 100K. the BOV should go - its a metered system and you have an "aftermarket airleak".
