what can i drop in my gp?

i want sometihng faster, i kno the easiest option is obviously buy something faster, but i like what i have atm, and to b honest i want to b diferent lol. so what engine(s) could go in my 1.4 active sport? im willing to put time, effort and obv cash into it, so fire away. All comments welcomed.

lower CR and then Supercharge it

hate to sound daft, but whats cr?

compression ratio

what would lowering that do to the engine then? bearing in mind its only an 8v lol would it b possible, and what arre the possible power outcomes do you think? its only 77bhp standard. lol. sorry fpr all the questiions, im a bit of a noob to engines lol

you lower the CR to allow you to increase it with a turbo/supercharger
my 1st question is how old are you
as even me being the wrong side of 61 had some insurers refusing to cover an aftermarket turbo conversion

best thing to do is sell up and buy a sporting.

1. no fussing around changing engines.
2. probably be cheaper than new engine etc
3. it will be quicker than modifing your engine.
4. insurance will be less

get a 130 sporting mjet and then remap it be more than double the power of your 1.4

hate to say it but i agree

no point u might aswell buy a new faster 1. by the sounds of it you dont really know what you're doing so it is going to make what you want to do quite hard

i kno itd b easier to buy a new car, but i wanna do something different, i ont want a deisel, i had one before i baught the punto, didnt like it at all, and my cars sill on hp with respect to all your comments, i wanna stick with my car, as for age, im only 19 but this wouldnt be haoppening until ive paid my finance off, so another 2-3 years yet lol please instead of all the buy a new car comments, can i have sum other surgestions lol, i wouldnt b doing this myself, i have a few mates who are mechanics, and some mechanicaly minded mates to do it for me, obv labour will b cheaper tht way,


cheers

looks like i need to do some east coast vs west coast pistols at dawn

Lol......

I think the question ought to be "What can I throw out of my GP?". It is cheaper to throw out all the things you don't need than spend a lot of money on it unneccessarily. You could start with the spare wheel, the carpets and soundproofing (is there any?), the glovebox and the centre console. No one will want to travel in the car afterwards so you could throw out the passenger seats. The list is endless!

Then I don't think an engine conversion is up your street really.

If your a noob to engines then how do you know you have the money for an engine conversion? How will you diagnose the imminent problems you will have with it after the conversion is done?

If you want something faster and different and have the money and don't want a diesel then buy a different car altogether.

At the age of 19, insurance companies will be rubbing their hands together

In 2 or 3 years he will be 21 - 22... and there will be plenty TJets around used for him...
