biff55 Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 turbo will require major engine rebuilt / new engine management / intercooler etc etc......... = mega £££ all the other upgrades , exhaust - air filter - chip will probably net you an extra 20 bhp. shoulda got an ST for the other extra 100 bhp youre after......... ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Tango Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Maybe fitting a larger engine would be the wiser choice here either the 2 litre or an ST engine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken.K Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Why not just save up and get an actual st. There is only soo much you can do with a 1.6 body to put in an ST engine you need the other things as well when you spend all that you would have been better off just selling your 1.6 adding the money spent and get an ST that is from the start you know high performance Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
