I've been pondering over the thought of building a 1.6T for the last few days, what exactly would I need to build one from scratch?
Awesome build by the way, love the pics at the nurburgring :thumb:

It does say in the thread what ive used but here are the basics-
1.turbo
2.ex mainifold to fit turbo an engine (courtney do one)
3.Spacer plate or low com pistions
4.Intercooler
5.Trick switch or different management
6.Boost pipes
7.Strong engine
there the basics but i have done alot more, what ever you think its going to cost you x2 it, i would say its prob cheaper and easyier to put a LET in but i went for the different option, i mean how many 1.6i turbos do you see now?? not many. and ive still got alot of power from such a small engine 175bhp at the wheels. hope this helps.
