Guys, anyone ever fitted a 206RC engine onto zx16V?

Any thoughts on this conversion?

It's EW10 instead of XU10, so probably will be different, less plug and play.
Why would you, for just those 10 extra HP?

more torque, lots more, also a lot lighter, newer, massively less susceptible to oil surge+starvation.

bingo welshpug...

mine is not version 2 ie my current bhp is estimated 150-155. It's also on superchip.

206RC at 180hp is a substantial gain compared to using a gti-6 engine@167hp.

As welshpug said, 206RC engine is also much lighter, torquey while maintaining zx handling & setup.

what i like best about zx is its simple interior and dashboard. look timeless cheesygrin

but to fit a 206RC engine, i need to use 206 dashboard & wiring setup sad

I dont think so, IF you use standalone engine management. Often you will also gain a few HP just by doing that, also you have the perfect base for future tuning (camshafts, ITB's? etc)

I wouldn't bother with the wiring and look into a stand alone mappable ECU, wouldn't mind one of these for the xsara.....
