citroen do a v6, think its in teh c6 or something like that. I havent heard of anyone putting the v6 in the saxo, most likely it would have to go in the rear

The coupe 406 did i think? probs too big for the saxo though. Like Scott said probs need to go in the rear but anything is possible! smileys/smiley4.gif

are the C5's rear wheel drive thou??

think i'd try and use the 406 coupe engine, but like its been mention i think it would be to heavy.

If your going to go to the hassle of fitting a engine in the back you may aswel just fit the same as the one in the front and run a twin engined car.

Ive seen a twin engined rs turbo and golf and they went like fuck.lol

Yeah but the 306 is bigger. It looked horrible though the one on top gear.

And got beaten in that point to point race.

Don't really see the point in spending that much money on an engine then putting 20" spinners on it and 15 amps in the boot. smileys/smiley2.gif

the chassie is designed a 1.6 16v front wheel drive. a v6 in the boot is a dum ass move unless you can sort the chassie also. V6 would be heavy & that is one selling point of the car itrs lights & nippy & handles well, to improve the nippy part would nean avoiding the V6 IMO...

but it would b great to see if it would go as a one off. i cant see iy taking off & being the next best thing tho.

Nah really wasnt saying I do that, but I guess if i had 40 million laying around my bank or something then it could be a good/funny way to spend it!
