hey all, ive decided to go the turbo route so now i just want some advice from you guys. The engine in my clubbi is an imported 1275 metro and from the uk's ebay i can buy a turbo, manifold and carbie as a complete unit from a metro turbo.
for example

Now ive asked on the turbominis.co.uk forum whether this can be a straight bolt on for me and apparently a STANDARD metro engine can cope with the 4psi the turbo uses without any mods to the pistons or head, infact it can cope with up to 7psi apparently.
Now i wont be dragging the mini or anything, so 4psi will be plenty for me but i wanted to check what you guys thought. If this is true, the only major mod will be a box welded into the bulhead to clear the turbo. The reason i ask is because i have a friend in the uk who is coming home for xmas she can hopefully bring it back with her.
so what do you think??
thanks
