if got a GSI at the mo and thinking bout either a valver or the turbo (2.0ltr 16v)

1)wot are the prices 2 for each ie is the valver cheaper than the turbo (2 fit)??

2)ive seen the fitting kits (get driveshafts, engine mounts ect ect) for 400 are these worth the money

3)ive lowered mine 60mm will it be ok on this or will i need better springs?

4)one more thing :roll: do u have 2 make your zorst manifold up your self so it fits 2 ur system (cut it up and weld it 2 fit)???

5) which 2 would you lot recomemed as the perfect lump?

thanks alot

1) valver = under ?500, turbo = over ?1000

2) fitting kits arn't needed... well not the ?400 ones anway

3) that will be fine... maybe add some courtneay 16v springs on the front

4) cut and shut to nova performance system for 16v... custom exhaust recomended for turbo

5) turbo lump with 300bhp 6speed box and atb diff

wot do you do bout the driveshafts then?? will 16v 1 be same size or do you have 2 use 16v inards and nova outCV joints?

wot bout the engine mounts will they all line up and go straight in??

thanks again

use cav mk2 1.6 late inners with 22 inner teethed gte shafts

1 mount lines up with 16v... the rear is a simple mod and the front just needs dropping.. the 6 speeder is more complicated to mount
