Thanks Jase 
now to the more pressing matter, as said before I'll be buying some uprated mounts. I've found the Vibra Tecnics/spoox mounts but are quite expensive but on the other hand, I found Jamie's suggestion of Baker mounts on the forum. But those are supposed to be for 205/309 so Can anybody tell me exactly what mounts do I need if I want to buy them from Baker? (and yes I know I'll need to buy the gearbox mount from Spoox.)
Also if I'll be buying stuff from Spoox, I was thinking of ordering an additional rear anti roll bar for a bit of added stiffness. I was looking at these two (the only two I can find):
www.spoox.co.uk/catalo...2f435c3448
And
www.spoox.co.uk/catalo...2f435c3448
Is the extra heavy duty acceptable for a daily driver or will it me too much (both of them are adjustable)?

I bought the 205 Baker engine mounts because they're the same (top mounts that is). They don't have anything listed specifically for a 206 
The ARB looks just like torsion bars, you just replace the old one with the new and that's it I can take a photo of it if you want? But there is a noticeable difference in the behavior of the car, it's much more planted now. BTW I think Edward wrote a How-to for the ARB if you'll change it as well

Ew12 = 2.2-litre isn't it?
EDIT: The EW12 was introduced to replace the low-pressure turbo variant of the XU10. It has a bore of 86 mm and stroke of 96 mm, for a displacement of 2231 cc. Citroën only uses it on the C8 MPV, while Peugeot, which has more a sporty image, uses it in the 406 SRi, 407, the 607 executive model and 807 MPV.
Model Output Notes
EW12 J4 - 158-163 PS (156-161 hp/116-120 kW) 16-valve catalyst

Heh yup its the bigger brother of the GTi engine...quite similar to the EW10J4 (only a bit taller), with a couple of J4S characteristics. It's going to be a nice winter project getting it up to the specs I have planned for it. And all progress will be photographed

That lead to another upgrade so I bought the top and lower Baker engine mount and the vibra technics for the gearbox mount (hasn't arrived yet).
