I dont do many motorway miles either but the MPG dont suffer much with the added bonus of the extra power. I can get insured on my 1.1 with 1 years NCB for £650 but id rather upgrade.

There a couple of video's on this thread if you backtrack. It sounds loud but good, pops if you want it to.

Also its universal so requires a custom fitment.

ramVT 26th February 2010 12:50

if i was you i wouldnt sell your 1.1, just buy a vts engin for it like i have done. that way you can keep modding the car and not start over. (engin not in as of yet still under rebuild)

give it a few days try and give it a wipe down with an old rag also, there will still be alot of oil left on it from when it was leaking.

Pressure wash then leave the engine running for like 40 minutes to see if it's still leaking :hug:

[QUOTE=Tom5190;4179860]why whats up like? what are you trying to plumb in a HU, amp and sub?[QUOTE]

We were tying to wire up my comps to the amp but when its wired up it only sends bass through everything. So i might need 2 phono cables to make it work Morgiee said.
