I wouldn't expect to much of a sound change as its only a 1.1, your not going to hear much over the tappets anyway, save your money and don't draw unwanted attention to your car!

i had a k&n panel on my hcs with a few drilled holes in the airbox... sounded alot meatier...too meaty especially when i was crawling up a hill lol. sounded too much for how fast it was, didn't move in tune with the rev - if that makes sense made next to no difference in performance, if it did i wouldn't have noticed as the 15" wheels completely crippled any form of acceleration on it... it only went to 90mph with them on lol |

how olds the car, if its a mks3 fiesta have a lightly tuned 1.3 HCS engine for £300. should tell insurance about the cc increase but everything else about the engine you can keep stum about. only done 12000 miles. ported head, 40 thou skim 1mm oversize pistons pistons and connecting rods balanced kent cam k&N filter Exhaust manifold ported with exhaust wrap around it just need a headgasket as i needed the head dowels, but have replaced them. you can see no wear bores or anything. |

To be honest when I see all these 1.1 and 1.2 making all that noise I just laugh at them. |

i presume you have a OHV valencia(if a MK2 fiesta ) or HCS (if a mk3 fiesta) engine If you can, get a second head from a breakers, clean and lap in the valves properly, take it to an engineering firm and shave 20 thou of the head and fit it back on. wont give more than about 5 to 10 hp but the engine response will be excellent, will feel like a new engine. if done properly will make car sort of 1.4 performance in a medium size car. the ohv engine you dont need to worry about timing as it is pushrod, haynes manual shows what to do, literally just rockershaft, head bolts, exhaust and inlet manifolds. which carburettor have you got, is it a ford vv or a webber. if its what i think it is a webber, one of the webbers fitted to these has the second throttle opened by vacumm and the other webber opens it mechanically, the mechanical one is the one to have because the vacumm one is a eco model, the fordd vv carb is excellent for aslong as it is in tune but most people cant do them. |
