I agree with chum...but make sure u get at least a 1.4 or even better a 1.6! Cos i have a 1.1 and put a 1.3 lump in it.....and it dont go that much faster! My m8s 1.0i AX keeps up with me!

Take out the seats, doors, trim everything basically until you have just one seat, gearstick, wheel and pedals

Should be much quicker by then

I drilled holes in my airbox....mine is a 1.1 but it has a 1.3 lump...so everything except for the lump is 1.1 :( It makes a bit more of a grunt wen u floor it....but does jack all for ur performance.

My advice....engine conversion to at least a 1.4! Or even better do wot im planning on doin...Stick with ur granny buggy....and buy and frst in about 2 years! :D
