i got a SPI and they can be tuned, however its a bit of a lost cause.

if your going to get an engine conversion you may as well get a 1.3 mpi (GT) or a G40 (supercharged)

GT's are 75bhp out of the box with about 90 being easily acheivable. just seems a waste of time/money to start from 55bhp (SPI)

however i would be annoyed if i thought up a genius idea only for it to be on every car by the show season
