I posted a post b4, about this situation. Turns out my car is just about knackard and the 1.6 transfer might be good.
Has any one overy tryed to make the 1.6 or 1.8 look like a turbo? Or anything like that?
How reliable are scoobs? Would a 1.6 with 100k on the clock have nething left? Are they easily fixable? Etc etc. Parts cheap, common?
And such forth!
Cheers in advance!

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a 1.6 but you had better get friendly with a breakers and a spray shop! Basically you will need
Bonnet
spoiler
front and maybe rear bumpers
side skirts
front grill
spotlights
Headlights
Prices will vary depending on where you source the parts from and the colours/ condition, if they are the same colour as your base car then you are laughing, you will have to tell your insurance and this will bump it up a bit, you could try looking at a 2.0l sport which has all the bumpers etc already.
Go to Imprezasport.net it's a sport owners website and will give you more info on what you are looking for
