See the stickied thread in this section:

You wouldn't find such a dedicated group of enthusiasts and owners if the car wasn't good to drive. There are also loads of tuning options that can iron out the torque dip and squeeze out a bit of extra power.

Am based Manchester and ive seen some used approved by Toyota.

Am only 23 years old and i think for a sport car this would be a good start.

The only thing i want to do the car is change the exhaust, change the air intake and change the rear and front headlights.

If you want more power insurance may be a factor

It's a shame you weren't about last weekend, we were at Botany Bay Chorley for a meet. If you want to have a coffee I can happily talk you through all the upsides and downsides to the car. I've done over 110K in mine from new and have some knowledge. :P The good news is you have the best Toyota dealer for GT86's in the UK in RRG Macclesfield. 

I live near Manchester Airport. Give me a shout if I can help. :)

As you are in Manchester, get yourself over to RRG in Macc. These guys are great with 86s'. Leave the intake as is and just get a panel filter. If you want to get the best gains get this www.tuningdevelopments.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=502_625_632&products_id=2567 a lot of us already run this set up
