    I'm in the in-betweeners camp at the mo. The 206 has plenty of power for what I need it to do (not really taking my daily to the track), however, who would say no to an extra pony or two under the hood. Dilemma. Just don't want to f*** up a perfectly good car with tomfoolery.
    In my old XR6T days (no changes on mine), a couple of my mates completed stage 1s and 2s, and ended up needing to replace a bit of running gear. It could be down to Make, Driving style, Would I drive it any different, or recent dev on cars. So I've been reading as much as I can to see the risks.
    So please, keep all the experiences coming, and maybe i'll grow a pair.

    Thanks

    How long do you want to keep your car for?
    If you do stage 2, then don’t keep it much over 100,000km and I’d definitely sell it before it reaches that.
    That’s from my experience what I see in the stg2 tuned cars.
