General 1.2 turbo> Novitec

[Alex22]

Does anybody know anything about these?
4000 euros, and a direct 1.2 turbo transplant.

I've heard novitec are a little unreliable, would anyone else go near this??

Also what about their 6 speed gearbox kits?

I'm guessing nobody knows! lol[8D]

hey talk to Julio_Scorchio as his cinq has a 1242 Turbo Novitec Transplant in it, its is pushing around 118BHP.

Its not the power you have or the size, its how you use it that makes the difference!

6 speed gearbox is pants for top end speed, afaik top speed is around 92-93mph in the rev limiter. It's only useful for acceleration

If you can use the 5 speed diff and 6 speed internals, it should be good. Not sure if this is possible though...should be... oh and your speedo won't go silly either.

Right - 6 speed box - Pete - it is a complete pig and very hard to put the 5 speed diff on the 6 speed box... so that really isn't an option (I looked into it and that is what I found/was told). The top speed is not as low as that because the car runs out of power to keep pulling past 5500/6000 and it does just over an indicated 100. So if you had the power to pull it then it still will go fairly fast. The other avantage is that because the ratios are lower it allows you to put up to 16" rims and it will equal everything out so you would be able to have a better top end. The acceleration with the 6 speed is well fun but you do spend a lot of time changing gear! Novitec won't do a 6 speed kit - it will just be a 6 speed box which would be a direct replacement to standard.
If anyone wants more info on them or actually WANTS ONE then just ask 'cos I have had one and should be able to get hold of more.
Cheers,
Matt
