No point buying a turbo kit might as well just buy a LET tbh Its so much hassle in the sense you have to tap an oil feed for the turbo in the block, uprate pistons, gasket, and then other ancilleries such as loom ECu and air flow meter all add up.
TB's are great for a drivable car but very expensive way of getting bhp/£
depends what your driving style is too?

I would love Icemans car i so would the Whole TB and engine setup looks mint. Bet it goes well too, But i cant really afford it and i would really like to have ago myself, Even if it does take me ages
From A standard C20xe (150Bhp) car what does the TB setup gain? 30BHP? say a bost up to 180Bhp? and what about the 0-60/1-100 Times?

can get a brand new LET from vaux for the megre price of £2000
this includes a £500 surcharge, see if you can join a trade club, you may be able to get it even cheaper.
