I've got a piper exhaust on my 306 and it sounds lovely and it's not too loud either if that helps?

I get the oil drains are different but the idler/ pullie arrangement shouldn't be too much of an issue as long as the cam belt provides even pressure no? Also couldn't the oil drains be modified to...

Post: TU3JP cylinder block, ET3 head?

I've been looking around and from what I can tell pug never made a 16v version of the tu3 engine, however they did make a 16v 1.4 for the 206. From what I can tell the et3 (206 engine) uses the same a...

That'll be the connection for your breather pipes, which should still be attached to the original air box

If a garage did that, I'd be asking them for a refund and get them to put it right at the same time. that's really not right.

Can anyone reccomend a straight through exhaust system for a 306 meridian spec 1.4? I've been looking around online and I don't really know what I'm looking for/at. Any advice would be really helpful

What sort of top end speed could I expect off of a short ratio box though? Also do you have any opinion on what exhaust system would suit my car?

That is true, I've got an ideation kit on order and I've got a mate who said he'd remap the ECU once I've sorted everything else out. Is there any exhaust system you'd be able to recommend?

I can't do an engine swap because I only get 2 days off of work a week and I can't afford to have my car off the road for more than 2 days at a time :/

I know that an engine swap will be best value for money, but what I'm wanting is to be able to tell people that I've only got a 1.4 but have it fly like s**t off a shovel
