They haven't to be fair, no one seems to want to have a go at remapping one either :(

It'll be the new family wagon, certainly easier than trying to get 2 kids and luggage in my brm :lol:

I'll upload some pics when I've picked it up

I think that in these days of hyper performing hatches and saloons, people think that 160 bhp is nothing.
It will get you to 60 faster than a Dolomite Sprint and will get you in trouble on the motorway. True, they should have released a proper racer to tease the public after their BTCC success but at least it was a start.
However, I wonder how easy it would be to fit a T16 turbo in it ?

The MG3 racer would be an excellent car to start producing, I'm sure the Fiesta ST/Skoda VRS boys would love it as I could imagine it being cheaper.

they are a lot of car for the money, apparently their will be a kv6 available in the next gen which I can't see happening, it is very similar to the 75/zt, a t16 would go in But youd have problems with wiring

I just Wanna Find some someone willing to have a go at remapping to 200hp ish after warranty has expired

It is quick enough really but theirs always a want for more

Hi. I need to know what type of petrol sender units fit my 2003 mg75ztt 2.5 24valve. Have seen some on ebay but numbers don't match the ones on top of my sender/pump in the tank. Cheers

Welcome to the forum.

I suggest you start your own thread, you're much more likely to get some answers that way. :)
