Grrreat project car.
I am also gathering information to do a Turbo conversion and stroke mine to 1.8.
This must have around the 250 bhp mark without to much boost.

what gearbox are you running now?

so the gearbox is stronger then I thought.

I also notice the standard trottlebody. It is very narrow for such application. I bored out mine 4mm but I really think you nay need to get a 60 mm bore one, see for instance the one mounted in VW/AUudi 1.8 turbo

Really one of the best Tigras out there

Although the front bumper does remind me of a Peugeot 407, I think it looks awesome

a sweet car, wheel choice is excellent and nice to see someone stuck with a small engine x16 block instead of doing the typical and chucking on a 2.0 (although 2.0 litre corsas ARE cool), nice to see someone thinking outside the box
