Just wondering if anyone has any info on doing this.
Had my 1.6 8v conversion in my corsa b for about a month and already am starting to notice how slow it is.
Redtop, LET were never an option either

save your money, when you have enough buy a quicker car which is easier to tune for power

Turbo/supercharger conversion is Not easy, Theres lots of stuff to think about, to figure out and to buy.
To do it, you're looking at around £800/1000 without running stand-alone ecu, which is another £600 or so + mapping.

That would be an easy way out robo, but i dont want to just be a follower.
Cost about the same as the conversion labour then

Sounds crazy, i know brett. But over here, you have a falcon, commodore, japanese import, a euro or you dont. I dont. And i do this because pretty much nobody over here has the balls to turn grandmas car into a weapon
