Re: 1.6 performace mods?
afraid i can only echo whats been said before, scoobs derive there power from the tubo, so when theres no turbo not much power im afraid. power gains can be achieved but tends to be silly money for not a huge improvement and you'll always be behind a turbo.
best bet as said save your pennies and buy a uk tubnro as and when you can. and also a scoob is a scoob, doesn't have to be a turbo to be a scoob so just enjoy ![]()

Re: 1.6 performace mods?
performance filter, exhaust system,fse boost valve,
thats about it without spending daft amounts, but the difference in power will be like 5-10 percent, not really worth doing so yeh.... keep ya head down, get 2 years no claims, build ya 1.6 up to look sweet as fook then when ya get a turbo swap ya bits over. sorted |
