i cuda got a whole cav V6 for £300 wiv knackered gearbox, other than that was mint. but he sold it now. i didnt take any interest as i fort it wud b expensive to fit the engine, and i thought the lad wuda wanted more for it. bugger! | |

for driving around town/general driving a C20XE is the conversion u'd wanna be going for. easy and cheap enough to do. | |

The weight of the V6 will not make it handle too well, and fuel consumption will be baout the same in town, why a 2.5L V6 for town driving though?? | |

true, well we was talking bout it at work n couldnt decide which sounded better, the roar of the V6, or the whoosh sorta noise of comin onto boost. saw a MK3 astra GSi with a LET last night gettin petrol. sounded really nice (no dump valve, just wastegate chattering away) :thumbs: | |

depends what you do to the v6 i suppose, turbo is easier to get stupid power, town driving i wouldnt say is different you can drive any car normally | |
