A red top will cost you £800-1500 if you do it your self. To get it done (drive in drive out) everthing done for you anything up to £3-6k depending on spec and wether or not you supply the engine and gearbox

16xe is an easyeir job diy your looking at up to £1k. but your find it a lot easyier and cheaper (insurance wise) to buy a 1.6 sport and tune that
