First a couple of apologies; Sorry if this starts another long winded ‘discussion’ about which is better and I know this is a pretty vague question but any help will be good.
In terms of 0-60 and midrange performance, which is quicker; Mk1 1.6i with a turbo (nothing too modded just a bog standard turbo set up) Mk1 1.6i with a supercharger (as above) mk1 1.8i standard
looking to get my first ‘5’ and not sure what to get.
At the moment I’m driving a 1.6hdi (110bhp) 206 so I’m assuming any of those will be quicker/more fun…
The modded 1.6s will most probably be faster than a 1.8 assuming that the systems are properly setup, which is what you need to look for. A bad setup with either performance mod could easily make the car slower than standard - which would be bad…
The cars will be faster than you 206 I think, but you’re going to have to make use of the short shift between gears (which is the point of a sports car), because the diesel would be more capable of sitting in 5th all the time.
Pretty much regardless of what you get, I’m sure you’ll enjoy it [Y]
