what you thinks the best cleaner was told to swill it in bucket of petrol good/bad idea?

 

[M8TTW]

BAD IDEA.
USE THE PROPER K&N CLEANING FLUID BUT DONT GET IT ON THE INSIDE OF THE
FILTER.THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO REOIL IT.ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS WILL COME
WITH OIL COS YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL NOT TO PUT TOO MUCH OIL ON.

Quoted post​

if you wanted to turbo the 1.6 you'd have to do something about the gearbox first...

it is weak as *** on the 1.6's.... besides that, they are good engines, and would handle some boost with stock internals etc..

but definately change the gearbox if you were thinking of increasing the power significantly...

too much trouble than its worth... just get a gti and start a new project!
