I've always wanted a 1600 16v turbo. When the Corsa & Meriva VXR were mentioned in the press with their new 1600 powerplant I was sure one day it would be done to a Nova.

Chris is realising that dream on my behalf. Awesome. LOL

[Timmy]

i have but one thing to say brooommm tisss

[Gordon Livsey]

i can see this being the future of nova conversions as chris will probably end up making and supplying parts for the conversion

[greg1.4]

this is a conversion i thought would be done to a nova eventually..glad to see it! should be a beast.

we need to get him to put it on here!

[Chris Astley]

Have started a new thread in the projects section.

Will be very cool indeed, and unique.

Worth it over a let, probably not imo.
With let's been tried and tested etc.

Just as tuneable I should think & seeing as it ought to weigh less, will feel like a Nova should.

[dhdev (Oli)]

I think its gonna be a fantastic conversion. Would make a fantastic roadcar and a very capable track car too. I think it'll handle like an XE, but with the power (virtually) of an LET.

[dannyb]

And the supply of fresh engines to those who are dedicated enough is bound to to a major plus point.

There doesn't look much room for a larger turbo in there.

Depends what the original turbo is good to.
