Throttle bodies, only way of getting anywhere near that.

Far too expensive. May aswell bin the 1.6 and stick a C20XE or LET in there. Far easier.

Is there a reason you want to keep the 1.6, or is ty to be "different"

I live in Italy and here I can't change the engine (otherwise I choose a c20xe..) so I want to obtain the same performance with a x16xe..I thinking to bore it to 1800cc(1790)If I find forged pistons..I don't know if I can use standard con rods..and then find proper cams (to gain from low rpm to 7500).
If someone can tell me all necessary to buy and where buy..

Not familiar with the law in Italy but I would think that has something to do with it.
