I'm getting a celica, at least I think I have made up my mind.
Its a UK 2.0 GT celica 184bhp. What is the best upgrade for performance. This doesn't include big expencive things like turbos or supercharge. I was thinking like superchipped £200. Weight loss? what else is there. I want it to stay a good mpg. (as I dont want to pay more on petrol) -------------------- |

first off the UK Gt is 174bhp stock. to release approx 8bhp - go for a decat pipe. though you will need to swap this each time you go for an MOT - and may be a bit dubious with your insurance co.. join the uk celica club (unless you already have - we have a group insurer) a decent custom exhaust - powerflow or japspeed (based in portsmouth) or a decent aftermarket exhaust.. eg blitz realize TT like i've got. then either a short ram intake with plenty of cold air feeds (minimal bhp increase but will generate a big grin) or a cold air induction kit noise and will give about 4-5bhp increase - but beware the british weather.. hope this helps.
