HI, got a 1.6 GL looking to upgrade does anyone know if a 1.8gl engine will fit into my 1.6 car without to much modification.

 

whats the point?

sell the car and use the money that you would have plus the sale of your car and get a turbo.

 

Yeah thats a lot of work for little improvement in performance... Also if its the insurance your worried about a 1.6 with 1.8 engine probably costs more to insure than a standard 1.8.

 

the 1.6 engine is nackered so a dont realy have a choice but to swap engines and theres alot more 1.8's than 1.6's plus the fact i'am only 18 so i cant get insured on a turbo so thats that out the question lol

is it an easy swap from a 1600 to an 1800???

cheers

 

I'm 19 an i've got a turbo, i brought it just after me 18th. The insurable mate. Just gotta shop around.
Mines an import aswelll so it's a bit more pricey than uk specs.

 

What insurance company you with if you dont mind mi askin??????

 

i got the quote through 4youngdrivers. The company im with is Zenith

 

cheers al give them a try
