   This is like the 3rd thread I have asked for help in. 3rd time lucky maybe?
   
   I have medical condition so can only drive an auto car. So obviously I got the 1.6 black top automatic.
   
   Its only a 3 speed box so its very limited speed wise. Acceleration is quite nippy but top end is very limited.
   
   I know that Cams would increase my power but is there anything else?
   
   Would a C2 auto box make any difference?

   Stay well away from the C2 auto. The 1.6 auto is still capable of illegal speeds, so i wouldn't worry too much about it.

   Leave the box as it is and fit a 16v engine. Think you would be suprised by the difference

   Its only a 3 speed box. Do you think it could handle a 16v?

    that would be awesome. im not clued up up on a 3 speed autobox but i would imagine you would get some good top end which is what your looking for
