looks like a bit of a shoddy conversion to me

suprised it can make anywhere near the power claimed with a tiny downpipe like that

i thought that to, downpipe does look on the small side. that was half way through the conversion, hence looking untidy

i don't think its a waste of a cossie engine to fit one in a Punto. i do think its a waste have made it FWD though, thats crazy.

why didn't they just make it RWD

i'd seriously rather a RWD Punto with a 330bhp cossie lump than one thats FWD and 576bhp.

in this case, its a waste of an engine. chuck it in a Mk1 Escort

fare play for having ago and not following the crowd , what a boring world if we're all like 80% of the above posts!!!!

500hp front wheel drive can be made drivable and usable with some thought.
