206 cc 1600 wanting to swap out engine for larger

Post by stevo72 »

hi all
i recently came into possesion of a 206 cc 53 plate 1600 cc manual,187,000 miles ,one owner from new,and still running fine.
I think it has great lines and stance,

The wife and i like our trips and this would be an ideal car to do that in,
but .......
i do think the powerplant is underpowered,and would like to fit another engine with more power and less miles.

i work in a salvage yard,and run the car section,
so i have access to a myriad of different vehicles.

sitting beside the 206 cc at the moment is a 206 gt1 2.0l with 80,000 miles,,
2 other 206s a 205, 2 307s
also a couple of 306s and 2 406s,with various citroens closeby.

Would any member know whether the 206 gt1 2.0l will drop into the 206 cc?
i appreciate ecu,suspension ,and coolant bottle etc will need to be changed.
or.....can any member suggest a relatively common engine which will fit with little or no modificatios,
i welcome your thoughts ideas and opinions,and any help would be greatly appreciated.

steve

The 2.0 cc is based on the 206 gti so yes its a direct swap and yes you will have to swap just about everything, I can tell you that the hubs are exactly the same though as I have a 1.6 hub on my 2.0 dont know about the shafts though as its a different gearbox :scratch:

The 2.0 is much more powerful than the 1.6 in the cc as its a heavy car.

Where are you? Ive got a 205 too, im after a 306 1.9td gearbox for it.

Are the engine ECU, AL4 transmission ECU and roof ECU run independently? So, if you change the engine with the new ECU, it won't affect the two other ECU?

Engine ecu is coded, I dont think the box ecu is but some god will be along surely to prove me wrong im sure, the roof ecu is a swap out item.
