Mountune costs-justified?

Post by Cb_newbie »

Hi all, just been doing some research into tuning my zs & come across something that doesn't quite seem right....

Ok so the mountune mp140 kit costs about £1300. Superchips recon that their £250 bluefin gets an extra 10bhp....put that with a decent cat-back exhaust & air filter (bits from mountune themselves are £380). Ok, you won't see a 20bhp increase, but that lot must be worth 15brake & only costs £630.....

Am I missing something here? Is the mountune kit really worth almost double??

I'd say it will be cheaper to do all the parts individually

You won't see any gains from a Cat back.

At least with the mp kit you get a full system, keep your warranty and goes like stink.

The other thing is drivability - can't imagine the BF will drive as nice and progressive like the MP map is.

Pick my metal up on Saturday and will be MR155 shortly.

But I do get what your saying fella. :)

How much is it to get the metal upgraded to the 155 kit? Is it the same as starting from scratch with the 120 zetec s?
