Re: Potent Citi 1.6i
One of our members has built one of these! 1.6 with 16v head except it has a turbo slapped on. Revs to 8000. It lives in a red 1990's VW FOXBlueBlob wrote:I wish somebody would actually do this. The theory behind it is great, and it should rev to 9000rpm no issue.sixteen10 wrote:would love to experiment by building an AFX sub assembly with a 16v head.
But somebody needs to actually do it. Will need to spend a fair amount of dosh though.

What's the difference between the hm 1600s and these afx motors besides the obvious of one being carb and the other fi?

Re: Potent Citi 1.6i
Hi Guys.
The name is Anton. I had some issues with my 2005 Polo 1.6 C\L, which resulted in me pulling out the engine.
My brother owns a very strong Mazda 3 MPS +- 400kw and I also want better performance. Considering that it's my everyday ride I don't want to go crazy like my boet.
Can anyone please advise as to what would be the best option to go aspirated tune-up an more or less costs involved.
I will be taking the head and block in on Monday for machining, any good suggestions in and around the Kempton park area?
Hope that this idea I have dont turn out to be stupid. Please can someone help???

Re: Potent Citi 1.6i
not sure what this C\L business is as I don't know such a model unless you mean classic for the sedan version which was not called that anymore.
But anyways - BAH engine code?.
