    Default 14SR ENGINE????

    i have a 13SR and the engine will soon be dead. i am only 17 so this is my first car. what do you think of dropping in a 14SR engine with piper cam? worth it? ot just get another 13SR engine. i ask cause u hear so much people say the 14 is faster then the rest say the 13 is much quicker.

    bear in mind my insurance is high for my 13.
    please let me know what you people think

    cheers

    fit 1200cc pistons and that makes it 1404cc or get a 1.4sr engine
    as for the 1.3 being quicker it is all ways the peeps with 1.3 who say it is faster (only cause they don't want you to get a 1.4)

    What effect would the 1200cc pistons have on my compression ratio. Would i need uprated head gasket or what...

    And finally how much more power could i see from it along with piper cam, KandN magnex exhaust?

    Thanks for the advice

    I have owned both as standard and thought they were both pretty quick. The 1.4 has more torque and has a bit more top end of the gears.

    surely 1200 pistons will reduce the CC in the engine !!!

    the 1200 pistons are bigger diameter. the 1300 has a longer throw crank and shorter rods. if you look inb the haynes you will see that the production 1400 uses 1300 crank and rods and pistons just a bit smaller than 1200
