It will be a GT2x eliminator turbo, good for 290bhp, a GT28 would be 350bhp.
possibly, has an atp manifold i think. i dont know a great deal about turbo's though. a friend has order a gt28rs for his cupa. we will make it fit. we made the turbo on my corsa fit and that was as big as the engine block

Would like to see it done!!!!! Don't think it's ever been done before on a RHD ibiza.

I think there is a lot of work involved. Not a mechanic myself but don't be offended if i said i think your under estimating how hard it's gonna be!!!!!! Would be easier to go IHI for 360bhp.

thing is, if its going to be hard, then its worth doing. if its simple, whats the point????

Thats the fun with modding but i mean there is stuff to do that i think is merely impossible to solve, like the pedal box being in the way, but i'm not totally sure, good luck your friend will have a very unique ibiza if it comes together.
