My m8 has a 2Litre Corsa and has spent a few quid on it, Upgraded Cams and stuff and whatever else, But he actually wants a Turbo now and was wondering if he would need to get a complete engine change or could his 2.0 be turbo'd, None of us are mechanically minded so we are just on here asking for help! Anything that gets done to it gets done in a garage! Any help would be appreciated Cheerz!

LET & 'box (if he wants F28) around £800-£1.5k depending on mileage, etc...
to convert the XE, probably £3k+

he wont be able to keep the cams, as profiles for turbo'd engines are completely different.
standard LET is 204bhp
