If it's the 1.2 energy then it'll definately fit. The 1.2 and 1.4 are pretty much the same engine, but different displacements.

1.4 rt came with a JB1 box. I'm not sure what the RSi had

What box is an rsi box anyway?

Could a JB1 box take 120bhp or so without braking do you think?

If your gonna use a JC1 box don't bother with the 027 its a pile of piss.

Make sure you find a JC1 053 found in the Maxim S or the RSi i believe.

Ah.
Reason i ask i've got an RSI lump to put into my 1.2 soon...the box is there but on 80k wheras my 1.2 box (JB1 i think) is only on 47k...i'd rather use that if it will take the abuse as its newer, will have shorter ratios and looks a bit cleaner.

What do you reckon?
