How much am I looking at spending (parts wise) on converting my 1.2i into a 1.6 turbo?
Is it worth it compared to 1.6 16v?

I'd go for the 1.6 16v. It would proberbly be cheaper. bet you could get an engine for ?300-400. Its alot of work to covert 1.6 to a turbo and you'll properly get loads of trouble with it afterwards.

You'd probably spend 400 quid on a hybrid turbo

In the long run the 1.6 16v would be better if u can find one at first just run it standard and then when u can afford it u want to put throttle bodies on it and take it up to 200 bhp.
