I've just brought out of the bargin page's. A turbo kit for a 1.6i and the engine for ?150 in the kit is-

Turbo
Gasket plate from courtny
Mushroom plate
Modified sump
oil cooler
turbo pipe's

I know i'm missing the mainifold, intercooler and oil filter re-location plate. but is there anything else i need and how hard will this task be??????? HELP ME PLEASE

Piss easy mate as long as you have a rough idea about what your doing! personally i wouldn't bother with the spacer plate i dont run low compression on my 1.6 turbo! best intercooler to get is the vauxhall frontera one you would think it was actually made for a nova it fits that well! Check my car out in the turbo section. any problems PM me and good luck!

Where abouts can that stuff be bought? I want to do a turbo conversion myself. How would the turbo work with the afm? surely it would suck past the readable scale of the afm? :?
