My 1200 is really starting to give up now. What should i put in the car now? I want something that will go straight in that me and my dad can do in a weekend. 1.3, 1.4??? or 1.6 ????? Will i need to change the loom, or is there any other bits that i need to swop?? (ps, i dont want a 2.0 in it, thats for next years car!)

i cant sell it the 1200 in it is fucked. (and if i sell it that will be a years worth of modding down the drain)

i think i will go for the 1400 (but is the 1300 better, as some people have told me this)

nope 1400 is better faster and smoother, u will need the exhuast manifold and downpipes as well

although the 1.2 ones can be used to get u on the road (i used the 1.2 zorst on mine for a month or 2 till i got the sr downpipes)

u will need the water T piece pipes from the heater matrix so u can connect up the auto choke, and u will need the sr throttle cable (a astra with a pierburg 2e carb cable can be used)

your rad will be fine

mine was drivable in a few hours, its no big deal
dont buy a 1300 lump they are horrible and unrefined
