tiddy1 Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Hi Joe, no I was thinking of going to a 1.6 supersport K, its the pareto principle you get 80% of the fun with 20% of the power, the last 10% take 80% more power/money to achieve Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Plato Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I thought that once Simon but I missed the power at the top end of 4th > 6th and the ability to drive the car on the throttle with 210bhp best bet is to fit a Duratec here is C7 TOP Taffia rear gunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiddy1 Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 no Joe it was not a joke, you know me, I prefer playing with the car than driving it SI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bewls Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Well personally I would stick with that monster engine! Good luck with the sale anyway! It's a fantastic engine (though I don't think my old neighbours ever forgave you for passing them at xxx mph on that short section of dual carriage way near my old house, hehehe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
