Talking Rs 1600i engine conversion?
I was hoping someone could help me out with this? i want to get an rs 1600i but put the engine out of my s2 rs turbo in it? would it be a case of a straight engine swap or would i need a different wiring loom ect. i really love the look of them but i dont want to give up turbo power!

Would need the Loom too mate. Easy conversion. Have a look on www.rsiontour.net. A few lads have done the conversion
