    2004 Punto Modding newbie!

    Hi there everybody. I'm Oner, im a chef from cardiff. I have been driving a 04 plate red 1.2 active for some time, and have only just got around to getting some rims on it.

    It's a project, moving away from all the soundsystem that was in there when i got it, so please bear with my noobishness. I'm also not a greasemonkey to be honest, so my knowledge of the inner workings is slim. However, the Brother-In-Law is a legend that can change gearboxes in the dark so he's helping me with my quest for 0-60 in under a minute lol.

    My first splash was a set of 15" Fiat Coupe alloys, that just so happen to look beautiful on the Oner-mobile. I'm currently running on 205 55 15 rubber, so am having a little rubbing, but i'm changing to 205 50 15s this week. A 5mm spacer on the rear should give me more than a fag-paper clearance from the shock bolts then.

    Removed the stock airbox, and replaced it with a huge unbranded cone clipped directly onto the intake, producing a mean sucking noise. The breather pipe has been fitted with a beautiful little round filter, blue anodised 'cause i'm a sucker for shiny blue aluminum.

    So, that's me, and my little ride. Any suggestions, comments or questions would be appreciated.

    Welcome to the forum.

    Ditch the wide tyres and generic air filter if you're wanting to speed it up though!
