is the injection, central or multi point?, ie. is it cfi or efi?

Probily cfi,
u can stick on a Big Bore and a K&N quite cheaply, though u would be hard pushed 2 find decent sh!t like racing head etc etc, but dunno, i got a nice carb, so much better for the modding, twin weber carb does wonders, fcuks up ur fuel consumption but worth it

:bonkers:

As Silver2iReplica has already said a k&n and a peco big bore back box. Thats what ive done on my 1.1cfi. I think you can take off the catalytic converter and this is meant to freee up a few extra horsepower. Dont expect miracles though :grin:

Get an RS1800 Lump m8, the rs turbo i think didn't have a cat on the exhaust and ours cars do:sad:

I think it was pre 92 without cats and 92 onwards do by law, emissions etc :bonkers:
