help with da 1.4 saxooo :D

[kinsey92]

y'alright guys, i got a furio 1.4 saxo and was wondering if any of you out there know the best things to get done on it to improve performance.. to be honest a list that i could work off would be nice :D
thanks a lot.

[kinsey92]

by performance i mean knocking the BHP up a nice amount :)

Its all acording what money you have to spend, you could go for exhaust and airfilters maybe even cams. or you could go for turbo conversion if the money is widly spread.

[saxp]

Fast road cams

Turbo

Throttle bodies

Straight thru exhaust

Induction kits

[saxp]

you just need money!! or just put a vtr engine in it i no a guy that will do them for you :D

[kinsey92]

lmao well unfortunately money is an issue.. its my little project that will happen over time... i havn't got turbo charging money so im going with supercharger, i just need a list to work off as i know practically nothing about how to modify saxo's :D

buy a vts...

waste of money putting loads into a 1.4

i can illegally get away with having a modded 1.4 that i can make fast enuff for me... or i can buy a VTS and not drive because they're too much to insure... ive only been driving a year :P

Or drop an S lump in and don't register it ;) although it's at your own risk :zainy:
Or drop a cammed vtr engine in, that would improve nicely on the BHP and it won't be blatantly obvious when you lift the bonnet like it would be with the vts

[dustcapart]

or just forget about all the silly turbocharging or supercharging ideas you have and drive your nice economical 1.4 around for 2 years and save for a R or an S and dont run the risk of modding it and the insurance companies pulling down your kecks for not declairing mods when you crash.. :)

[laberridge]

+1 to that ^^

[Manu]

get a ripspeed air filter and drive with your fogs on.

You can't insure a 1.6, and you can't insure mods on a 1.4. Apparently

money is an issue


wait until your insurance rapes you for the next years to come after your first crash. Then you will know about money issues.

He can't afford jack shit.

Its people who crash either without insurance or without valid insurance that causes insurance prices to be high for everyone else.

If you cant afford to delcare your mods then dont bother

Grow up

[sax0gal]

well said also is a fucker for other people when someone uninsured drives into them

[f13sta]

the 1.4 is pretty nippy as it is just give it a good service and it'll respond to that quite well. besideds once you have a few years ncd then you can get a vts or something even faster if you want.

[Furioman]

Wouldnt bother trying to get more bhp, strip it, and spend your cash on handling and brakes, down the road you can always upgrade to a vts engine when insurance is more friendly.

I thought the largest percentage of insurance was due to all the wingers that claim accident injury
