it's just the ratios that are different is some boxes like a one litre has less power than 1.4 so the 1l box would have a lower ratio gear box for bottom end power and top out bout 110 maxx while the 1.4 will top out bout 125 maxx :D but the acceleration wont be all that but im just not too sure bout the fittement
