you would need to run a turbo on a 1.8 16v to get 200bhp :wink:

What he said! That's the easiest route to 200+ bhp, these days. You can buy pretty much all the stuff off the shelf, including the custom engine mounts, exhaust manifold, etc. Costly though.

its not that costly really, it works out half the price that you would pay to have it done at TSR, they are asking ?7500 for a 20vt conversion the last time i checked. drive in on monday and pick up on friday.
