C2 Code
Hi all
Just thought I'd say hi,
I own the Citroen C2 Code 1.6cc 125ps

I want to mess around with it I've owned Scobby's an Sti bugeye and a classic wrx which were fun and fairly easy to tune but I've not done anything with a Citroen before. I'm a vehicle technician working for frosts vauxhall so all mechanical mods can be done by me :bigsmile:

I was wondering if any of you have done any proven mods to your code or vts that have made gains.

I'd like to turbo charge or supercharge it but don't no if the gearbox or engine would take it and then there's the issue of maybe having to lower compression etc.

Looking forward to your input, thx all

Phil

Cheap turbos can be purchased from breakers yards which are ideal for a try it and see type project.:bigsmile:

Please note that I don't think it is worth adding a turbo to an old car with a small capacity engine. There is nothing stopping you but the money and hassle will just not be worth the power gain you get. It is better to just buy a better car for your tuning project.:confused:

Adding a turbo is a major engineering task and without a kit with full instructions and all the parts you need there is a big risk of blowing up the engine. Expect to spend 50 hours upwards on a project of this type. This is not the sort of modification you should undertake unless you are mechanically competent and know what you are doing.

It is worth looking at superchargers as these are generally much easier to install than a turbo is.
