Got a few ideas in mind on what to do it not official yet

1.Getting a C20LET putting that in etc doing all the usually stuff to it rebuilding it and buying parts whata needed for it


2.Take it to REGAL and just get it turboed by them not cheap, are they descent company do the job good etc?


Info of the turbo installation below
Full DBilas Turbo Conversion Kit consisiting of: Metal grille scoop, Flowmaster air intake system, Flowmaster inlet manifold, Dbilas Turbo Manifold, Turbo unit, Dump valve, downpipe (including 100cell sports cat so that emissions will pass a UK MOT test) and software along with all taylor made pipes and hoses. Price: £3,950.00

or does anyone know a cheaper place where they do turbo converisons or to get the parts im not mechanically minded but have a few mates who are so they would be able to help


What would you do?

Cheers

Either way it would be better than turbo'ing a x14xe or x16xe or whatever he has

u'd be lucky to get zlet for that lol, i paid double that for mine, then found it had been a cat c write off n had to sell it for 5k cheapest one thats ever sold i'd say haha and it was an 06 plate. New owner has not long ago had it on pistonheads for £6700 and that sold within a week.

from what ive heard on some other sights the exhaust manifold from the new corsa vxr fits on the x16xe meaning you could use the turbo off it,

not sure on all this though.
