.I have never fitted one of these engines in a coupe. My only pug was a 205 which was an Mi16 on twin 45 webber carbs and a gti 6 box to go with it 270bhp and the same amount of torque on a rolling road
I would imagine on the coupe you you would have no problems as it effect the turning circle on a 205.What a great idea
Fitting 2.0 gt1 6 with 167bhp would go down a treat a few subtle mods and few thousand pounds more and you could add 100bhp to that like i did.I would put the gti 6 box in as it was designed for that engine. The 2.0 box is used in the V6 and is not up to the job as mine broke when i had my 406 coupe V6
under warranty so i was lucky. Would also suggest uprating the handling as i think they are terrible. Cant believe peugeot over looked this as well as the gearbox I had mine from new back in 1999. And i felt it was one of the worst cars i had owned and did not live up to my expectations.To me and expensive peugeot £30k
still cant believe i paid that for a peugeot. With a lot of compromises to sum it up. Looking back wish i had gone for a second hand bmw 330ci Club sport. As it would do everything the 406 could not do. Apart from the looks the 406 coupe wins hands down on that
.Good luck and keep me posted also performance and pics would be appreciated, Rappy
