I'm thinking of breaking my 1.3 micra would anyone be interested in everything needed for a transplant?

Sorry should have worded it better. I have a complete Micra which is destined for the scrap heap.
If its worth my time I'll strip the engine etc out. Basically all the parts you would need for the transplant minus the subframe.

Anyway back to normal business ....

Today has been spent thinking about improving the driveability with the ITB's. Looking at the data logs its reaching what at just over 30% throttle which confirms the ITB's are oversized.


Currently I'm not running any velocity stacks sooo my first option is to make some velocity stacks but I'm planning a slight change to normal as they will insert into the ITB's and hopefully the reduced inlet size and extra length will improve things.

Quick drawing to get an idea

If that doesn't help I'll pick up some smaller ITB's

I have sent you a message probably easier to talk via message so it doesn't mess up your build thread

It's a dizzy, the engine has now been striped out and put aside for the Midas. Micra shell is just waiting for the scrap man now.
