hey guys first off im new to this forum and new to the whole saxo cars,

i just brought an 02 Saxo the VTS from an old chap down the road,
its standard nothing been added or taken away,

i was just looking around at the mods people doing on here and seeing the BHP gains there getting which im impressed with from such a little car!

any how im just wondering what performance mods are most over looked
on this little cars im going to get it cammed, remapped, manifold, exhaust system etc, but im thinking wheel size whats the best size wheels for saxos,
whats the lowest to go without ruining the ruining the cars performance?
just little mods like that?

i used to own a clio sport but insurance wise its not worth the money1

anyway thanks for the help and time guys

I found upgrading the brakes made a huge difference. Knowing they ain't going to melt.
