OK, going to be real thick here!!!

What type of engine do you need to fit a turbo?

I was thinking 1.4mpi 16V + Turbo + NOS - Can this be done?

Also, can u mix your fuel with say' methonl or other "drag fuels"

Cheers

I think that a bit of general research into the likes of turboes, nitros oxide and such like in is order mate.

Have a look at www.howstuffworks.com

which should give you info on the basics of turbos etc

It is not as simple as you think to make the engine reliable and running well with a healthy amount of power.

This will all cost a lot of money...if you were to get a company to do the work for you (thousands).

courtenay do an off the shelf turbo system for the 1.4 (not sure if its 8v or 16v) and adding NOS is just like adding nos to any car so thats "easy" aswell

if your willing to pay that is
