Change of lump

I've decided to change my inclination( watch iiiitt!) a with regard to my engine choice. I was going to use a 16 valve Citroen XU as they are cheap, light and powerful, but having weighed up the lack of tuners in GB, complex engine design, hassle getting it coupled to a Ford 'box and relative scarcity I'm gonna flog 'em and use the 2 litre Zetec which came with the part-built Velocity I bought back in April. Zetecs are plentiful, easy to tune and it's already bolted to the gearbox so less hassle there. The only things I 'll need to sort is an exhaust and some sort of inlet manifold. Can anyone recommend/direct me to stay the hell away from any companies they have used?

Why do you have to use a ford box with the peugeot / citroen engine ?

What's wrong with just bolting it up to the box from an LDV freight rover 1.9 diesel box. Instant RWD solution I thought
