Hey Cordoba boys!
I'm thinking about buying a 95 model.
What should I be looking out for?
Any cheap mods to boost performance? Anybody taken the cat off, etc?
TIA

Not a Cordy boy, but from the age of it, if memory serves that'd be a 4 door with 2.0 8v? If so, then I guess the usual rules of 2.0 8v tuning apply - induction kit & exhaust will give little on their own, but add a chip from AmD (mapped specifically), either with or without a Schrick cam. The cam will be required for big power hikes, as there's problems getting enough fuel/air past the valves with the standard cam. And while you've got it all apart, get a little head work done, or even a lot of head work. Mmmmm, big valves....

Not so cheap, but something to ponder on.
Gas flowed head and cams.
performance exhaust.
throttle bodies
mappable ecu..

just need loads of money to do all these things.

Or

Filter, chip, zorst - the usual stuff.
