Yes, it is an excellent conversion - you will certinaly notice going from 44kw to 65kw.

More importantly, the drivability with EFI is so much better, that by itself is worth doing the conversion for.

Definatley worth it, lots of aspects to consider before & during the conversion. As a suggestion, try searching with '1.6 and Efi and benefits'.
Here's a start with some reading for you bud. 1.6 info, do's & don'ts, where to get them, benefits between carby & efi etc...

hell yeh. Well worth it.

I just gave mine a good run on the weekend and with the lockers and efi iwas about to idle most things and when power is needed it is instant and not winding it up like the 1.3.

also depends on how much u can get the motor/wiring done for.

i did all myself and got the frontcut for 1600 + 500 freight. wiring can cost heaps depending on who and how they do it.

if it was 10k for conversion i would say no but all depends.
