I just meant not to take it on lightly.
Good luck with it, sounds like a good project. You could always try and buy a 405 T16 (which are around £5-7K apparently) and take out the engine, but it?s probably very similar to the 406 turbo engine anyway, GT will probably know.
I?m very slowly preparing my 205 to recieve a larger engine, changing parts for high spec ones as they break (it?s done 170k now so there?s not much that doesn?t need changing). I?m comtemplating a 1.9TDI from a 306 but will probably not bother for a while.
Anyone know the mpg, top speed etc for a 306 mkI 1.9TDI engine?
