The 214 engine is a good solid performer. I'm pretty sure you can bolt on the VVC head from the 1.8 for more power but you'll need a new MEMS computer and new locks :shock: as the immobiliser is built into the MEMS unit. For more subtle mods try a cam change, sports exhaust and Panel air filter - these engines love to rev so really apprecaite a good cam profile. Moto-Build racing are your friends - they sorted out parts for my 220 GTi when I rebuilt it and have a wide range of parts for the 1.6 and 1.4 blocks.

i put a vvc inlet manifold on mine with a 52mm throttle body aprently it helps give a bit more bhp. but i just think it looks alot better than the standered crap.
