I already have a 4-2-1 manifold on, and I would build the throtle bodies using r6 bike bodies. That should save a fair bit of money. I have a lot of friends who are pretty clued up with cars so labour will be cut down to a minimum.
I have definitely thought about turboing, but...it is the sound of throttle bodies that has just hooked me.
I do understand what you are all saying and I agree it is going to be a lot of money that I will be spending on a 1.4. But im not plannign on blowing £2,000 in a week this will be spread out over a year maybe a little longer as I want to do it all properly without cutting any corners at all!
