n20 if you want power you can take to different engines/cars.

You'll need bigger wheels for those brakes

nah havent done a tap to it. still on 13"stealys:lol:

gonna put 2l 16v brakes on it soon, as my brakes are going and the standard brakes are a bloody death trap nearly ran up the back of a mondeo on the motorway a few weeks ago when he braked infront of me.

i just wont get insurance on a bigger engine for the forseeable future and im bloody 27! very annoying!

Gonna get a toyota or honda next year so just keeping it to the esentials at the moment, although i will drive a 2ltr corsa in the future may take a few years though:)

Like for gods sake the thing is just killing me at the moment

just doesnt like hills at all stupid bloody thing

:mad:

As above m8 just concentrate in making it look good.

They can be tuned, but not worth the time/money/re-sale/power increase per £ etc.

i.e, dont bother.

not really any cost effective way to modify the 1.2 8v engine! just make it sound louder

anyone know how i can get more power from 1.2 8v?
i have installed a BFO induction kit.
what would you guys suggest?
i cant afford the insurance to replace the engine
