sorry to hijack, but would this fit to the 1.6 8v lump? also would this be the ideal one or is there a different one people would recommend? How easy are they to fit if you have only a little mechanical knowledge?
mine poped like crazy with the decat. had a straight through 2" bore stainless steel exhuast, was far too loud for me because of work (i'm an estate agent) but did pop loads
£51!! bell have only charged me £14 for my eibach pro's and £14 for my spoiler. I asked about alloys and they said that would again only be £14! They wont be covered in the event of a claim though, only standard parts will be, but that is there policy on modifications, there arent many out there...

lol, if it was 100bhp then it would be quicker than 11seconds to 60. the 1.6 has 90bhp and i've timed with a gtech at 10seconds. but a 100bhp 1.2 with a chip and exhuast... yeah ok!
ok, lets ignore energized a minute and deal with the PERSONAL attacks against me. i dont have an indepth knowledge regarding tuning, i have never claimed to have one. the reason i 'only' have a 1.6 8v is that i refuse to pay more than a grand for insurance (i'm 20 so insurance is high), as i...
