yeah true but dad said he wont help me do the conversation and i dont fancy paying someone else to do it

No point throwing thousands at a small engine when you can spend a grand on an xe conversion which is an instant 150bhp.

More power means more money. If you don't want to spend much, then you won't get much in return. It is a hard fact.

dappy people what other engine modifacations is ther i can do im on a tight budget i should of perhaps gota better exhaust too start off with

Not sure what you mean. If it is a digital odometer then it may need a signal from the ecu but i doubt it, they are usually from a speed pulse from the gearbox. If it has a mechanical odometer then I don't know why they would tell you such lies. Carbs have nothing to do with your gearbox. :lol:

ok cheers i asked a engine place bout them and they said something about my mileage clock not being used is this true?

you will need a manifold at £100, the carbs will be £500 new or £250 second hand. And a few other bits at about £100. Tb's will be 3x the price. Keep your eye out for bits for 1400s on www.rallyusedparts.com.

how much would twin 40's cost tho im only a part time super market boy lol

Twin 40's will be cheaper and sound the same and will get the same power increase.

But TB's sound :cool: though.

yeah seconds forghts might just get a new inlet manifold will be a whole lot cheaper cheers lads
