Chris why dont you just buy a x16xe, rebuild it and tune it while your building up your no claims and drop it in when you can afford it? Your going to waste alot of money this way.
Not even driving yet, so would be a while

TBH, as it's costing him about £40 in parts, plus the files, it's worth a try.
Gotta be worth a laugh for the money
If it works, it'll be more bhp per £ than I got from my X16XE

Yeah, want to see how it compares to a mate standard 1.2 8v, and a 1.4 spi.
First car, its going to be slow, so I dont really mind.

Just the one in between the throttle body and the inlet.
Oh, and make sure you completely clear the filings out the inlet,lol.
Oh aye, the brake cleaner and hoover will be out
What best to block off the EGR, just get the plate from vaux, or make one?
Depends if you cba make one yourself.
Its not hard, but more effort than just buying one
