he means do it yourself m8, lol

:D

or perhaps do a load of research as it wots involved if you are serious.

look an valvers.com for a guide on the XE conversion as a starting point.

Its not a difficult conversion to do now cause its been done and perfected a lot.

Get together all the gear u need

engine box (poss F28 6 speed) then all the things u need including conversion kit for the gearbox etc etc

i could go on but u get the idea.

research is the key and with the internet these days theres loads u can find out while sitting on your arse ;)

i wouldnt expect fitting to be much harder than with a 2.0 16v but setting it up probably much more complicated.

It is still a difficult conversion as there are a lot of things that have to be done different to a normal valver conversion + the C20LET engine is a lot more tempremental than a C20XE engine and finding a good one is a lot harder. Rick
