My friend who lives in same street has a 1.5D with a GSI kit on, thinks its the bollocks and rags it round where ever he goes, iv got a 1.2 8v and thought he could beat me in a race, went from 0mph to about 70mph before e had to slow down on this really long stretch of road, and i beat him by quite a considerable amount 2, if i can beat them, they got 2 be slow!!!

how much we talking to turbo it? that'll make it the same performance as the standard 1.5td then i'm guessing?

100 quid tops i would say for the 2 manifolds, turbo and hoses. there is enough novas in the scrappies. you can then do the tweeking mod. adam did this to a 1.5d and his made 78 bhp on the rollers.
