I was flicking through a classic car mag and happened accross a 1.0 turbo nissan figaro and thought why the hell not. :lol: I'm now in the process of trying to find one of the turbos out of one of these to fit to my 1.1 mk2. :o
that would raise a few eye brows :rolleyes:
Wot you lads think anyone done that before?

If you have thot of it. Then its been done already. But i wouldnt try and get the turbo from one of them. they are rarer than rocking horse poo. get one rorm a charade gtti. you also need to get a carb that is capable of sustaining boost. the earlier chardes where carb fed. or R5 turbo's. just get them rejetted.

just a few ideas to help you on your way if you decide to do it mate :wink:

Ah, so you're the person who speaks for fiestaturbo.com when you make foolish statements on Barryboys! Be a love and express in that bombsite of a thread that I didn't want you to speak for me, thanks :)

Simple answer is simply don't bother. You will not see any real gain from doing it other than your wallet emptying. You'd be far better off just dropping a 1.6 CVH straight in place of the original for an instant 90bhp

aren't milkfloats electric :lol:

On a 1.1 the weight of the turbo and lack of extra power will probably mean the power to weight ratio goes down :lol: !
