Turbo charging a non-turbo 1.6 Elite
#6
It will certainly be unique

I am sure you could probably get some form of low boost turbo kit, with little engine mods and probably not even an intercooler, however, it wont give a lot more power either, it would probably easier to go for head work and cam to your existing car

I am sure the full fat 1.6T, was 180bhp and if you are looking for that figure you will need a lot of internal engine mods (pistons, valves etc) as well as a turbo, engine management, intercooler and all of the associated plumbing

It will certainly cost, a lot, probably not far off the value of your car
