The idea's there mate, but on your engine it's not worth doing in my opinion. | |

quote: you wouldnt build the turbo, but you would build the exhaust manifold for it? and fabricate some piping for the inlet and intercooler, to save on money you could use the turbo and intercooler from a scrappy off a 1.5 td corsa [Edited on 20-04-2007 by --Rikki--] | |

c12nz's are bomb proof lol, i might turbo mine to test this theory, but what i meant with the 1.6 inlet is get one, take a look at it and see if you can make your own one thats less restrictive and then make another and sell it to me ;) | |

get a 1.6 astra spi inlet and have a look at that, if you can improve that your on to a winner, that inlet and 1.8 cav throttle body and 1.4 corsa spi injector give a bit of extra power, well with a nova sr cam too | |

would it not be better to make an exhaust manifold? Will be a tad easier for you | |
