I guess from post you have a williams? I'm from Kenilworth and don't know of many tuners around here, not any I would trust anyway.

Pete Scale in Leamington is a good mechanics. They did my clutch for 150 quid labour with me getting parts from GSF. They also fitted my supersprint manifold and done wheel bearings too. So for labour they are good.

Decat will add power but not pass MOT. Although MOT place near Pete Scale passes mine every time on emmissions. Think Lunner on here is from Stratford and he can sort you out a decat cheap.

Would recommend you get a Haynes manual if you haven't already. Check things like plugs, leads, dizzy cap and rotor arm. Anything that needs replacing replace and as a result you will have better spark and restore car to former glory. Additives like Forte Fuel System Treatment also good to ckean fuel system and injectors, just stick in tank of fuel and let it run through everything.

Chips and remaps tend to make car more drivable but expensive so only worth doing after mods like cams or headwork if you are going down that route. Got a BB chip on mine and it made car a lot more drivable.

Maybe ditching the Green open IK will give you better power. 1st thing I did on my valver was ditch the K&N it came with and replace with a BMC CDA and custom throttle body adaptor. Any sealed IK or even airbox with repalcement filter would be better than a open IK.

Better brakes help you stop better and give you greater confidence when pushing it. And coilovers are probably best upgrade up there with chip as power is one thing but handling is just as important.
