Hello. Is there some pictures of this trigger wheel set up?

Felicia swap
My final goal is a 1.6 engine with standalone ecu and turbo @ 8psi, give or take. And hope to reach 100 hp at the wheel. This is my personal car and project, and want to use it as a daily as well

Felicia swap
Yes, I am aware of this, the project will take a good time and money, but is what I got and how i'm enjoying spending time with my father

Felicia swap
Actually this proyect is a long, step by step one. Because of the budget, first it goes analog (carbs and distributor). The next step will be a standalone efi and will finish the engine part of my proyect with low boost turbo, and why low? Because I don't eant to break any record, just want a fun and reliable car to drive

Felicia swap
So, what you are telling me is that I only have to change that engine mount, and those on the gearbox fits just Bolt on?

Felicia swap
Here in Colombia the passanger side is on the right side, but I guess only have to change the one that is rigth in front of the timing belt?

I could use some advise. Thanks.

Felicia 1.3 upgrade
It wouldn't be easier and cheap just put a 8 psi turbo?, Here in Colombia is quite expensive the n/a tuning.

Felicia 1.3 upgrade
Wow, but that is like 160 HP, I only want to get like 10 kg per Hp.

Felicia 1.3 upgrade
I wanted to do the 1.6 swap, but somehow I manage to own a megasquirt 2 and a IHI rhf5 turbo. I believe I can do most of the work myself. The idea is to blow no more than 10 psi, hoping to reach it at 2.5 or 3k rpm. Have any one done this??

Felicia 1.3 upgrade
What I hope is to get close to the 100hp, for my carbureted engine it would be a huge upgrade, enough to use on the mountain roads of my country.
-
Felicia 1.3 upgrade
Thanks for all your wisdom, I just bought a megasquirt 2, also, my Felicia is the carbureted one, so, there goes my protect, will let you know.
-
Felicia 1.3 upgrade
Thanks a lot for your answer. So, it would be just easier to mount a programmable ECU and low pressure turbo?
-
Felicia 1.3 upgrade
Thank you for your quick answer, for what can see it is a lot of work. Now, does this engine fits into the Felicia housing without adapting plate or is a must? I'm running out of ideas for this little engine to gain a little bit more power.

Felicia 1.3 upgrade
Hello friends. I was wondering if the Fabia 1.4 MPI crankshaft fits into Felicia 1.3, with the connecting rods?
-
Felicia swap
Thanks for the help. For what I can see, is not as easy as I believe, should be better use de Felicia 1.6 aee or try to squeeze a few hp out of this old 1.3 carburated

Felicia swap
Hi there. Here is the thing, I'm from Colombia and currently own a Felicia 1.3 carburated, I was thinking about the Felicia 1.6 aee engine but for what I see, the 1.8 AP from the golf mk3 looks pretty much the same. Does any one knows if this engine fits as the aee does? Without make the engine mounts? I like this engine because is pretty cheap where I live and should be a good improvement. Thank you all for your time, hope you can help me.

Felicia Fun with dodgy 1.6 engine....best engine swap ?
Hello, I'm from colombia, and new Felicia 1.3 owner. I was wondering if a ap engine fits the gearbox and most engine mounts. This because here in Colombia is quite cheap to find a VW gol, golf, vento engine 8v engine and should be a torque and hp improvement. Hope some one who knows about this can answer me. Thanks.
