Vincygav Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 To be honest, don't think it is worth it. If it were 10-20 years ago I could understand. You wouldn't find much people to do a conversion anymore, and you probably would be looking in excess of £1000k for a shop to do so. Power gains now are nothing compared to most modern day cars. Not sure what engine you have, but a swap out for a 15 bhp gain and probably 0.5 second knocked off the 0-60mph isn't worth it imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delfrombefore Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Id say the above post is 100 percent correct unless its having a turbo etc added which again will cost a lot more ive had zetecs etc in the past in my mk3s and mk4s but i prefer a fiesta turbo cvh , the power of modern day cars will be better but i just like the ease of working with a 1.6 engine and the space im left with under the bonnet If you have a 1.6 zetec just now tho its worth the change over if you can get it cheap enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
