I rang my insurer (Norwich Union) today to see whether I would need to pay any extra if I fitted an Apexi Induction kit. The bad news is they don't insure any modified cars.

So now looking for a new insurer; anyone recommend an insurer that does take on modifications? I expect to fit a new exhaust and a Dawes as well as the induction kit.

HIC seem to be doing well for people.

Norwich union direct insured mine with a modification - alloy wheels.

They also said further mods would be ok up to a point, but the guy I spoke to didn't know where that point was:confused:

There's always Greenlight.
They're the opposite, they don't insure you if you have a standard car...!

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I will be with Liverpool Victoria from midnight tonight. Only charged an extra £22 for 4 mods: boost gauge, induction kit, Dawes device and after market zorst!

Hopefully start to mod tomorrow (if the bits arrive from Bren).
