I get what your saying, your not after the looks, styling or power of the 180. You just wanted more power to go with the looks of your car as it is.

Oh shhhhhhhh yoo showoff lol, I know mate, but I'm not very tall so starting low is the only way
That's fair enough mate, didn't want to tell you what you to, only advise from someone who tried to go down that route already, if it's looks you like, stay with the 206, if it's power and thrill you want, save some cash up, sell the mods, sell the car, get something with a bit more go in it

Yup, you hit the nail on the head there, if it had a 1.4 16v or a 1.6 block in I'd just do mods to the engine to get more power out of it, but as I keep reading/hearing with the 1.1 there is virtually nothing you can do to get any decent useable power so an engine swap seems the way forward on this one.. Buying another car isnt an option I'm even going into nor thinking about, I'm determind to see this car through the whole project I had planned.. Styling, ICE, Handling and Power (Not stupid power, but more than a 1.1 lol) The T16, GTi-6, 180 would only be done AFTER I get another car as a daily and convert the 206 to a track car only..

Yeah I know I remember you doing it to yours, the power doesnt actually bother me (well should I say lack of power) it does 70 on a m/way so that's all I reallyyyyy need in reality, it may take abit to get it there like but its all gravey.. These are all just plans that I have that probably wont happen for quite some time lols
I'll save up some cash, buy your engine and chuck it in the rear of the 206 hahaha! Jesus that'd be abit of a mental conversion

Could follow in Trick's footsteps and go for the 2.2 EW option or the 1.6 THP...
#41: Re: Do I go back to standard? Author: Mitch, Location: ScotlandPosted: Sun Aug 01, 2010 7:26 pm ---- Or you could go ahead with the plans and surprise everyone
