lad i know had one in a 1.6 gti

think it was pretty straight forward but he is a very good welder fabricator so his straight forward might not be for others like

how neat is that

[AlexB 0]

it was very neat lol

the whole car was mint tbh

[flyfisher 6 2 Cars]

just looking for something a bit different everyone does the mi16 or gti6 convertions but then again in two minds i have a k plate non cat 1900 and its mint mile age only 61000 from new. would you leave standard or convert

You need to do some searching on here and reading Fly. All of your recent questions have been covered.

 

And with a car like you describe I'd leave it well alone and just keep it mint.

judging how much its gonna of a pain its gonna be to fit an MI16 into a 206 gti rally car im helping to build i say that going the other way will be a total pain in the bum as well, none of the engine mounts are in the same place and its gonna require a lot of fabricating to get it in...

 

mind you if you fancy a challenge, do it....

Engine sits at a different angle to orig engine,causes probs with mounts and sump to ground clearance IIRC

 

Also the ECU /loom etc if you planned on running standard injection is complicated IIRC,all stuff thats been discussed on here before

wow ! thats a work of art !!!

[bluesleeper 3]

does anyone know how he relocated the servo in the pic above??

[Baz 421]

Using an adapted pedal box, and an arm etc to work the Servo/MC similar to Fiestas etc i would've thought.

probably came from the 206 that donated its engine

i know its an old thread but yes i have one in my gti rally car and it works very well

[welshpug 1,661]

stick up some pictures and specs then

ok. but currently only got one pic .i will take a few more as i reinstall it (sure you all know i crashed it )

running on motorbike carbs and megajolt ecu it produces 194bhp at the flywheel it actually made 9 bhp more on the ultimate map but we could hear it wasnt happy

mounted in the same plane as the 1.9 but i had to make new upper and rear mountings to get it there, its been in for about 2 years now and still going strong and never missed a beat
