Default 307 Performance mods

Im looking for some modifications that i can do to my 2001 307 that will improve performance or improve my MPG, its a 1.4 petrol. Does anyone have a 307 that they have modified?

Thanks

as its a petrol there isnt much you can do. but you can:

- change all filters to performance filters
- lower the car and fit struts so it will take corners faster
- fit a stainless steel exhaust full system to give the car a nice sound and breathe easily. (dont go to big, otherwise you will be thrown into the same pile as gayboy corsas)
- fit performance brakes ie pads and discs
- remove all dead weight.

like i say not much but its a start.

Ahh okay thanks, is there nothing like performance chips or intercoolers that i could get? a mate of mine has recommended that i get them however he has a diesel car so he probably doesnt know if it fits petrols.

Thanks

Chipping a petrol isn't worth it really. Oh and there's no point in fitting an intercooler, saying as you don't have a turbo too cool......
