:drool:

Well I have found a person that does turbo conversions near me. He has recently done a corsa and wants to do mine.

Well I have sourced a TD04 Subaru Impreza turbo for £120.

Gonna buy LSD as well to get the much needed traction down.

Will keep you updated on when it gets started :drool:

Project T is coming on in leaps and bounds, the Ickle Beast is gonna FLY :eek:

If you want one, then he will do it.

I will find out a bit more about mine and let you know what to expect cost and time wise

As for power gains... not sure yet

First I had to source a turbo - had an email today from a guy on scoobynet (good place to find turbo's!!) he has one for sale. When un-modded the bhp was 215, of course I will not get that as I only intend to run 1/2 bar.

I need to get LSD - no point having power if you cant get traction. I also need to get an intercoolier.

Once I get the turbo delivered will speak to him about what is required and estimate gains. But like anything - you need to test it to be acruate.

Just remember this is only stage 1 - Planning and Sourcing.

I will keep you updated on each stage as it progresses

A turbo is an idea I have been toying with since my days with my lil' GS. I may have to do it in stages though. The suspension set up will be first, then brakes, then turbo. HKS do a full stage 2 turbo kit, with all the bits included (for £1,800 + VAT, I'd expect so!).

Do keep us informed of your progress.
