Well as most of you know i have a white 206 1.6 gti up for sale and has been for a good 10 months now, the car is mint in everyway so today i have just bought a 406 sri and i think i am going (or now know i am) to convert it to turbo power!!

Heres the car is question click here

I know this has been covered a few times but i need to have a pop, who knows i might use it as a driver for a bit then sell on.

Don;t bother, the conversion is the biggest waste of time and money for the result's
I;ve done a few and even the 200bhp ones are not that good

Totally agree with miles, I really dont think they suit the car. Overly complicated and generally dont fit very well imo.

If you really fancy a crazy project Carl go for something like a 205 with RWD and a rear mounted 406 V6 supercharged engine Ninja

Might be a little expensive though Doh

what about an mi engine ? seems a popular conversion for a 205. or an s/c, but an expensive conversion for a 1k car.

All sounds like a plan, the reason i was going to do this to the 205 is that i bought a very cheap 406 executive turbo jobby.

Its a straight forward conversion so i hear and was just up for a giggle. mmmmmm tisch LOL

A few pictures of the donor,

Well i may have an engine for sale or the complete car can be for sale, the lad who works with me has been using the car as he crashed his and guess what?

He has had a little incident with this now, it's just a damaged wheel and a bent wishbone but i dont know what to do with the car if i am not going to use the engine.

it wont end up a cheap coversion even though you have nearly everything you need.
by the time you have done with all the painting of the parts under bonnet eg, and all the fancy hoses and under bonnet bling eg it will end up a fortune LOL
