Could there be such S2000 1.6T cars like:
Ford Fiesta 1.6T
Citroen DS3 1.6T
Peugeot 207 1.6T
Skoda Fabia 1.6T
Proton Satria 1.6T
Fiat Punto 1.6T
Are these cars possible to make just by upgrading S2000
or do the manus have to homologate them somehow?

The engine must be homologated. Every new part or a change in an existing part must be homologated.Quote:

Yes. It should be that way that WRC and 1.6T S2000 share same homologation number but have different option variants (VO). 1.6T engine upgrade for old S2000 (2.0T) should be homologated as erratum (ER).
Yep, excellent indeed, thanks OldF!Quote:

Thanks OldF and Mirek.
The SP will have a smaller restrictor than the WRCars I asume, otherwise they would be at the same performance level as the WRcars. What's the size of the WRcar restrictor?
So, far 2011 we will have
WRC: Citroen DS3 / Ford Fiesta / Mini Countryman
SP: Mini Countryman and possible Ford Fiesta (I don't see Citroen making a SP of their DS3)
2000: Skoda Fabia / Peugeot 207 / Ford Fiesta / Abarth Grande Punto / Proton Satria
(and some more, but these are the most used)
You have reasonable differences described by OldF several posts earlier. It's not only restrictor size.
Besides that Fabia 1.6T will be available before 2012 too.
think that is going to confuse a lot of not so well informed spectators all these differences between wrc -wrc sp etc.
Here's the official video of the 2010 Motor Show Bettega Rallysprint final in Italy.
