So I was shopping at Sainsburys the other day, when a young lad who worked there was approched by his mate who was out of work clothes.

Heard the lad who came in to see his mate working talking about modifying his "PuG 1o6"
Upon listening into his convo, the guy working at JS said he wanted a more powerful car, well his friend who was visiting him said that he could get a 2L for his little 106, and he was saying how easy it would be to do an engine swap, he also mentioned the fact that he'd never done one before, but hay! It's easy he was saying, the guy who worked there was like, i bet it aint, but this guy was so confident that it was easy as hell! (bare in mind he hasn't done one before).
Then he went into how "quick" his 106 is, and how it had modded cams, K & N induction kit and no decat. (that's it).
Then he went onto saying it could easily keep up with a Caterham, and he said it would eat a Type R anyday.
He said he had a 1.6L @ 168BHP.

At this point, I burst out laughing! They both looked at me as if I was stupid and I walked off.
Then outside I was helping my old man put the shopping in his estate, and this guy was leaving the car park, his 106 was in red and had "Rallye" writting down the sides.
Oh and it had the biggest bodykit i've ever seen and the sterio was so loud. He litually just started it up and was ragging the **** out of it, I thought to myself... Cold engine mate?
It also appeared to look like it had 17" rims on it too.

This really made my day listening and seeing this crap going on! I hadn't laughed at something so hard ever! Just wish I had my camera at the time!

Just thought I would share.

Edit:- did i mention the guy was wearing a tank top and had his baseball cap tilted to the side...

Also forgot to mention, he said the 2L he could put in his mates 106 would produce 180BHP. iTs sUpA QuIk MaNg!

Haha! some of these young kids kill it these days!

just no need for it!

one word - Loser
 
And, another thing I forgot to mention! Just remeber he said it because this happened like 5 days ago lol, he said swapping in the 2L will give "mAd TawLk SteEr" and his exact words were "Adding the 2L will give you mad torque steer, but it's cool because torque steer makes driving so much more fun mate! - har har har"
 
I wear a vest and baseball cap :p

Anyways these guys have lost it :lol: you should of shown em what VTEC was....
 
Any man that wears a vest can't be of sound mind...Or hetro-sexual :p

I took a glance at the Pug forum once, they seem to think that their Pugs are the fastest cars on earth! But then, that's all their dole money and child benefits can afford :shocked:

Not a chance. Unless the driver of the R34 really didn't know what he was doing...

I dont go to Cranfield as someone always crashes and they all drive like cocks...

As far as i know theres no 34 GTR`s in MK. Theres a few GT and GT-T`s about.

Even my mates Modded Rallye stripped out with 120bhp can only do high 16 1/4s so i doubt very much it could keep up with something like that. I dont really know of any naughty 106 GTI`s kicking about either...used to know of one on ITB`s but that was years and years ago.

That's the one!

They have some nerve saying Honda build quailty and style is crap when their cars are built by frog-eating surrender-monkey's and are the car of choice for every coffin-dodger out there. Peugeot is pretty famous for it's performance cars? NOT!
 
Haha, shits funny.

On a serious note, there is a 106 in my town with a 1.4 Citreon AXGT engine, fully built and some crazy ratio gearbox, Pulled about 2 car lengths on my in the EK9 one night....
 
lol, reminds me of a conversation i heard in my gym the other day, lad was telling his mate about his friend who had a new car (cant remember what, wasnt nice though) and how they were on the car park and he was drifting round i quote 'it was wicked sick' so his mate was like ah cool, rwd then? to which he replied er no was just ripping the handbrake up giving it loads of revs.

you can just imagine it. bloody *****'s.

lol, what an idiot.

106 GTI's aren't thát slow by the way. Mate of mine has had 2 or 3 (Peugeot fanboy :D ) and we measured one of them with a healthy engine, with my G-Tech Pro RR. Almost stock except for some kind of CAI ram air thing and after market exhaust 0-100km/h was done in about 7,3 or 7,4. He then put in another chip to raise the revlimit and he got 7 seconds out of it. Though it didn't pull harder with the chip and after the redline. Probably mainly due to the fact that he could now reach 100 in 2nd gear.
