No you need the full engine, ecu, loom etc etc

oh that sucks!!

Was hoping to make my little 1.2 a little quicker!

is there anything that i can do to make it quicker without having to do major work?

loose weight.

 

[Djw John]

Take everything that you dont need out, rear seats, plastics etc etc

 

[izard-industries]

yeah i guess but i want it to be practical, i was thinking more on the tuning side of it?

 

[Dan@SJM]

nothing really. put a 1.4 t/b on to it.

 

[izard-industries]

as in a r5 gtt engine?

 

[Dan@SJM]

no, a 1.4 spi throttle body from a 1.4 clio.

dont bother with performance mods, been there done that with my old 1.2 16v as much fun as i had it was to much money for hardly any gains.

LOOSE WEIGHT as some of the guys have said, no rear seats, no spare wheel and tool kit, no door cards, no sound deadning, light weight buckets etc then sort the suspension and brakes

The head does fit its all the wiring which you need to sort.

There are ways round it but for the hastle foeget it.
