I have just had a engine conversion done last week, from a 1.2 8v to a 1.4 16v and when i first drove it, it seemed very quick but as the weeks gone on it seems slower every day and now its seems really slow.
Could it be performing shite or an i just used 2 the power now.

Your opinions please and has this happened 2 you?????

Cheers
Dan
