Inlet was off a C16nz, it has a egr valve too but i just blanked the port with some alloy plate.
Yeah the injectors are slightly different.

adam were you say you made 86hp but had to change the head and play around with the inlets do you mean for the 1.4 or 1.2 also what head did you swap it for
also what do you recon the engine would run like with a ast2 cam in the head mate would it work

My spi engine wouldn't run with a ast2 cam fitted
86hp was on a 1.4i, with a SRi cylinder head, home modded 1.3sr inlet manifold,1.6spi throttle body,gte cam, decat/4-1 manifold and ashley exhaust system.

dam what do you thing would help it run
would the 1.3 crank and rods to stroke it out to 1.4
help get the powr to get the cam going do you think
60-65 BHP from your old 1.2i engine ? Not bad
I'm thinking about a Cam for mine, so one from an SRi or GSi would do ?
What kind of gains would that give me ?
Engine has had a full service and also has an induction kit fitted
1.4sr cam is best. If not then a gte/gsi one.
Cam
De-cat
Std 4-2-1 gte/gsi/sri exh manifold and downpipe, and decent exhaust system
Should see about 60hp, and could be done for about £50

Doesn't it need a Cat for the MOT ?
Would probably have a full custom exhaust system made and get it as freeflow and legal as possible
Cheers for the help Adam
Just a quick question can the 1.4 or 1.6 head be fitted to lower the compression ratio for a turbo application? and could you run a GTE loom and ecu on a 1.2 engine that had been turbo'd??
