Not sure if this is the right section to pist in but as some of u know when i bought my car the clutch went etc now its back on the road it still feels as slow as ever...

Im not exagerating at all!! It takes forever to get to 60 something is really wrong, can anyone just name a few things it couls possibly be?

Its going to be serviced and get a new air filter soon but with these changes i dont think it would make it that much faster as it seems far to slow now..maybe im wrong..

Please just name anything u think i should be checking etc Smile x

I'd get the cat looked at. That can cause performance issues.

the problem is the car has a self learn ecu and when its been parked up for some time it resets its self so you need to go out and take it for a good hard blast for few days and that will do the trick. the ecu will then log the way you driven the car and soon become how you remember fast!!! xxRazz
