most ppl upgrade from x14xe's to x16xe's and dont change the v5 or insurance because they get power gains without it looking obvious when the plod lift up the bonnet. whereas a c20xe can easily be identified as "not the standard lump" and then they get buggered for it!:lol: | |

a c20xe is tempting but at 1.6 will be a lot cheaper. | |

if your engine came with the x16xe ECU then use that. But you can use the X14XE if your 1.6 ECU breaks, dont work etc. | |

Wouldnt it be cheaper just to get a x16xe ecu an chip rather than remap the x14xe unless you remap so it is better than the x16xe | |

you can use the x14xe ECU, loom, gear box, driveshafts etc. The ECU will need to be mapped accordingly though. Broster off here has a x14xe ECu on and X16xe:thumbs: | |

it is worth it if you can do it yourself, but perhaps not if you were paying someone an extortinate amount | |

you need to change the ECU Chip and transponder IIRC, or you can get a C16xe and ECU but i dont think they had a immobiliser...i might be corrected on that one though...... | |
