:smiley:me again how can my wife get more power out of her 1.3 mk2??? what will fit from other engines or won't anything be compatible

get rid of the 1.3 ASAP!
replace with a 1.8 8v!!! they are cheap to get hold of they are cheap work upon they are reliable and pull like a horse.
Ditch the 1.8 digi crap and loom n stuff and just make the engine weber carb compatible. All this means is plonk a weber ontop of the TB LOL and blank the injector hole.
You will need a 1.8 8v gearbox as well. and if you do all the work yourself you could have a sweet little number for around £500-600

unfortunatly there little to gain from a 1.3 :sad: so really its another engine or another car, another car being the easiest option as if you but a big engine in youll obviously thav to upgrade your breaks etc too so alot of work, you could get a 1600/1800driver for around 300 quid if ya dont want the search for a good condition gti,fair performance cars+you can do cool things like stick a gti camshaft in it etc as its pretty much the same engine just with the injection system mine was 210 quid and twas completely mint :smiley: make 200-300 by selling the 1300 on and your sorted :cool:

pop down your local chav meets on sunday night.
huge spoilers and shopping list stickers gain at least 30-40bhp at the wheels. If that doesnt work go down the custom led washer jet route :smiley:
