Full service, air filter, exhaust. Just the basics really to make it breathe a little easier.

Does anyone know what the best engine would be? Or another alternitive to give it more power?

I think the 1.7 puma engine is a popular conversion.

[color="#483D8B"][font="Garamond"]I was thinking about that, especially when i had my old ka millenium but in your view would it be worth the money to go from a 1.6 to 1.7? And would it show a big improvement? thanks again x[/font][/color]

Dunno really. Depends how crazy you wanna go. There's a few with Cossie conversions, or you could go 2 litre zetec but dunno how easy that would be. RS Turbo could be another option????

1.8 - 2.0 black and silvertop both fit in the ka, cnc mounts are also available. 1.7 also fits and so does the 16v 1.6 lump out of the mk5 zetec-s fiesta which can be tuned to about 210 but shawspeed
So loads of option all depends on your budget
Oh forgot about the 1. cvh rs turbo lump and zvh's

It does seem alot of work and cost for a KA though! Why not just buy an ST170 or a new ST? You'll probably spend just as much converting it and insurance anyway!
