turbo on c20xe

[so1o]

i was wondering is it possible to take the turbo (everything needed)for a let engine and put on to a c20xe?can this this be done, if not why not?turbo kits available for this engine, whats my best bet?

if it sound stupid the top part, is coz i dont know to much about this stuff

thanks

cheaper to get a LET to be honest

compression is TOTALLY wrong on the XE, hell if anything its too high on the LET, lol

Have heard of people putting a Coscast C20 XE head onto a LET.

I think this works quite well.

how about a turbo kit for a c20xe?will this have more power then a standard let?
or will it better to just get a let engine?

lol right cheers,

how much should i pay for a LET?
is it worth rebuilding the LET?
Buy a cheap LET and rebuild it, how much does rebuilding roughly cost?

[Ben]

A cheap LET is about ?6-800

A average priced one is ?1-1200- Dont pay this unless you see it running or get a kind of warranty with it.

I would recomened rebuilding any engine before fitting, maybe not complete strip down but pull the head off, have a compression test etc etc.

erm correct me if im wrong, but havent you only just had an XE fitted, and complain that it handels like shitte. Dont you think you should learn to walk before you run lol

[Ben]

:lol: sod walking drive its quicker :wink:

lmao :roll: , was thinking, turbo would come in handy when i blow my engine, its just something im thinking about just in case i need it, if i find one going cheap, it wont hurt to put it away

coscast head on the xe is the same as a let one anyway, so would make no difference
