    GT as they are lighter with a similar amount of power. HGT arent quick as standard but have potential.

    all little bits and bobs - exhaust, air filter, de-cat, chip/ re-map, cams. The usual stuff but just got a lot of ptential with a big engine in a small car.

    No on any stats i've seen and i've been in a few modified HGTs are they are flat, no acceleration what-so-ever.

    Don't get any thrill of N/A engine anymore.
