a z20let with a vxr turbocharger? crikey, thats far too much power for a corsa c, if it had just been the z20let, fair enough. must have a death wish. jesus

seriously it should never come to that total, garage charge way too much.

me personally would think you could have it in a looking factory for under £3000 *in theroy* btw..

I really doubt Dave or beardy would go near one, the wiring is a nightmare...

its not going to be that bad to someone whos familiar with modern car electrics

However, i feel an aftermarket ecu would be a good thing and make life easier

a z20let by itself is roughly 200bhp, the vxr turbo pushes another 20bhp i believe, where as the vxr gets near 240bhp through electronic tweaking. so you'll be looking at hopefully 250bhp with the vxr turbo, a set of cams and a remap? sounds a hell of a lot to me! get on it!

I have looked at the wiring diagrams for this before and it doesnt look to bad at all.

I would definately take on the conversion for you but as for a price its difficult to say. what engine is in it now? what year is the car?
