i think pvd do a fitting kit for around £150 but i'm not sure of the total cost including gear box etc. go to a scrappy or have a look in the free ads if anyone is selling bits!

dont forget to book in a rolling road setup and tune afterwards to get them cams and chip funning sweet, my mate just found out that his 2.0 was pinking badly and ifit wasnt for the forged pistons he would have melted em.
also dont give it stick for the first month. dont wanna tear a mount now.

she didnt do the engine swap, i think she got v-tuning to do it!!!!
i'm not gonna give it stick that much anyway cause i drive the car to work every day which takes me half an hour! and i use up enuff petrol on a 1.4!!!!
how much is a rolling road tuning session?
