Orion Si Posted October 23, 2002 Author Share Posted October 23, 2002 someone told me MFi engines are better than EFi ones, but now i think its the other way round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRS1300 Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 not really, you cant chip an mpi engine, you can an efi, you would be better stripping the injection off and fitting carbs if you want to tune it any way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Si Posted October 23, 2002 Author Share Posted October 23, 2002 cos im only 17, the only thing i would be doin to the engine would be puttin a Pipercross air filter on it and an exhaust, then little things like spark plugs and ht leads, cos of the insurance . A 1.6i will be powerful enough for a few years, then whack a RS Turbo lump into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee R Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Just stick to Ford Motorcraft plugs and leads mate, "supposedly performance" leads and plugs just look nice, and can quite often make the engine run like a bag of Shite..... ask Ross....
