1500 diesel exh manifold & downpipe (corsa?)

[mowgli]

i'm planning to fit a 1500 n/a diesel engine to a corsa b. the engine i've bought is complete except for exh manifold and downpipe. i'm prepared to mackle the exhaust pipe a bit, so what have you got??

I have a td manifold and turbo, you can just fit it and not bother running the boost pipes if you want n/a power. You could even duct it to the cab to give you a nice additional air feed! What so you think?

[mowgli]

do you know if you can fit a turbo to an n/a 1.5 without blowing it up?? is the inj pump different?

Yep pumps different, no diagram on top iirc.

The compression ratio is 23-1 rather than 22-1, I ran mine with out the boost compensation valve once, i boosted 11psi less and was flat! So you would need the pump really, Camshaft is the same though so It should run fine on the higher compression.
