1.4 is 88bhp/90lbft
1.6 is 106bhp/98lbft

1.4 is still tuneable, but you have a C16XE laying about dont you?

Yes I have the engine but if I'm getting rid of the car for something quicker then I'd be aswell to get rid of the engine

What bhp can the 1.4 be taken to ?

get the 1.6 m8. n keep the engine incase u ever need it.. infact, buy a 1.6 then build it a monster engine using the spare engine then when the time comes swap them over, u know it makes sense

id say get the 1.6, if my car was origanly a 1.6 it may well nnot have been converted to a 2.0

I had a 1.4 16v which wast tunned to 110 BHP but you had to drive it to hard to make use of it
