Advice on mods for UK Jazz?
Guys,
I've recently bought my wife a 2005 Jazz Sport SE (manual) with the standard 1.3 DSI engine and would like to get a little more power and torque out of the tiny engine. Does anyone know what the best air filter/induction kit that's available in the UK for the jazz? I've seen so many that are only available abroad. Are there any good CAI kits available in the UK? I've heard that for such a small engine and low revs the standard exhaust is not really restrictive, so not sure if its worth changing it?
Also, on a side note, what other mods would you suggest? I've been looking at installing the AUX port for MP3 players but a lot of the photos in the DIY thread have gone now . Also, I've bought some LED lighting strips to do the door sills and boot which will be going in this weekend hopefully. There's also a HID kit on its way and a rear bumper/boot lid smoothing thing.
My wife has been looking at a small subtle jdm roof spoiler too, I can paint it myself but has anyone installed one before? Do you have to drill holes in the roof to mount one? Did you have any problems with rust?
Many thanks for any help!

Yes, some territories get the bad engines...

I don't think there are any good intakes available in Europe, but I'm not sure. What do you mean by small JDM roof spoiler? The OEM Honda one or something like the Spoon Sports spoiler? If you are not running the OEM Honda spoiler, you will have to drill holes. No word about rust yet, seems to be without any problems.

I'm not really sure if its JDM, I'm just assuming its JDM as I haven't seen many here in the UK. There's no spoiler on the top of the range jazz se sport here. I've seen the mugen one which is nice but we're looking for something a bit more subtle.
Do you only have to drill holes in the roof, anywhere else?
