What the hell's the point! Had to do all sorts of engine work, low comp pistons etc.
Would have had bigger gains, and cheaper from fitting an xe!

I love that, although I would prefer a 1400 or 1600 turbo if it came to it

Aye i suppose a 1.4/1.6 would give more power, but if someone asks what engine you have and you say a 1.2.....theres more satisfaction when you (hopefully) blow them away

Fair play, It's good to see something original rather than c20let for a change.
