what engie mods can i do ? - lenny_pug98 - 22-03-2013

hi guys was woundering if any of you pug lovers know of any ways to tune the egine id love to put a new engine in but cant afford it atm but atm just want to tune engine as much as possible Smile also after some modified parts eg. lights, exhaust system or back box, anything really pm me Itwasntme


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - Dan! - 22-03-2013

If its a 1.4 then you will be best off just stripping loads of weight and getting a nice cold air induction/exhaust. But dont expect to see much power gain, its not a tuner engine to be honest with you lol


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - sam - 22-03-2013

Hench v8 lmao save your money and get a gti6 conversoin Smile


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - lozz - 22-03-2013

Change the inlet manifold for one off a saxo 1.6
Or a 306 1.6

Why does most people on here say it ain't tuneable
It is,


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - Blandy - 22-03-2013

Anything is tuneable if you throw money at it only thing is realistically the money spent for the gains will be poor as with a lot of n/a cars


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - Piggy - 22-03-2013

yeah buy a turbo or supercharger kit, one off set of forged rods, uprated headbolts and gasket, stand alone management and wahaay! its tuned and has huge bhp.....

with enough money anything is possible....


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - lenny_pug98 - 22-03-2013

i will start stripping it out in the morning Wink and i do like the idea of a hench v8 Itwasntme but relisticly i need a good air feed and exhauest system but after i do that i will start saving for a gti-6 or just the conversion


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - Piggy - 22-03-2013

Just note....ensure its running 100%....induction mods on a 1.4 will only change the sound...you wont see gains, you may even loose some power...

a well serviced 1.4 will outrun a diy tuned one anyday...

loo


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - sam - 22-03-2013

I had a diablo 5 door, started out as a 1.4 then what I thought was the headgasket witch ended up being a coolant hose leeking I had a 6 lump put in best time of my live driving that tbh id have that back over my astor 6 now


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - lenny_pug98 - 22-03-2013

yeah engine runs sweet as but i will give it a service aswell also quick question will a 1.6 manifold bolt straight on to my 1.4 silly question i know but im new to this and dont know alot about the tu engineTMI.....yetBig Grin


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - Piggy - 22-03-2013

just save up ya money matey....HGs are bad for going on these and you wont see much bang for buck on tuning unless its big bucks


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - sam - 22-03-2013

Tbh if you want to stick with the 1.4 I wouldnt worrie about the 1.6 manifold, 1.3 106 rallye head and inlet manifold and a 4-2-1 exhaust manifold and youll be around the 100hp mark, mate did it to his quicksilver and the flew kept up with loads of 106 gti's


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - lenny_pug98 - 22-03-2013

i have started saving for a bigger enginged 306 but i was only going to tune my car a little as i only got to drive it for another year or so just untill i can afford to buy a 2liter


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - sam - 22-03-2013

For the conversion cost you might aswell buy a 6 anyway dude Smile


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - lenny_pug98 - 22-03-2013

yeah mate i just has a look at the 6 conversion and it costs loads of dosh Sad so like you said mate just be eaiser if i save up for a 6 and that way i will have a better base to build from if that makes sense


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - darrenjlobb - 22-03-2013

Strip the crap out of it, you will be shocked at the difference!


RE: what engie mods can i do ? - lenny_pug98 - 22-03-2013
