Never heard of a 1.4 stateside. What year and body? You will probably be a lot better off with as swap anyway. 1.4 is tiny and you know what they say - "No replacement for displacement."

 

I take that back, the part about no 1.4 here.

thats all that i can insure till im twenty five i pay 3 thousand as it is it a 99 ek hatch

 

Is insurance in Ireland based on engine displacement? If so, that sucks. Is that insurance figure quarterly, bi-yearly or yearly?

Maybe a turbo kit for a d15 or d16 might work with a little fitiment. I am not d-series savvy, so couldn't tell you.

 

no thats three thousand per year insurance. and if your caught swaping engines its a ban from driving and have to sit your driving test again

 

First off, the D14 has some really good engine geometry. It's small, but so what.

A good thread about possibilties for N/A upgrades. As far as turbo goes, the D16 kits should work with minimal modification (as already stated).

 

what part of dublin are you from i am from castlerea in roscommon i am here in the U.S if you need any parts let me know and i would used a greddy kit it will work if the car is after 92

 

wtf, caught swapping an engine gets your liscense revoked?

that is possibly the most retarded thing i have ever heard. for your govt.
