As for pieces
oil pump

pop off valve
ECU
injectors
AAC valve
fuel pressure reg, control solenoid & surge tank
fuel pump (debateable)
crossover pipe
crossover pipe to turbo heat sheild
air flow meter to turbo ducting metal & plastic piping
detonation sensor & wiring
exhaust manifold
turbocharger
dump pipe & exhaust
oil & water lines for turbocharger
turbocharger heat sheild
charcoal canister
engine fan (earlier models)
ripple red finish in rocker cover
gearbox A/T & M/T
diff
brakes
tacho dash if not berlina or higher
little turbo badge for dash
turbo boot badge
36kw and a bootload of low down torque
as for cost add it up
shouldnt be too bad if you get some bits cheap
this is what i have seen some parts go for as an example
ECU $150
injectors $200
crossover pipe $80
air flow meter to turbo ducting metal & plastic piping $100
detonation sensor & wiring $50 (get from NZ)
exhaust manifold $150
turbocharger $500
dump pipe & exhaust $600 (proper exhaust)
And of course, if you've got an S1 motor forget about it.
But seriously.....you want a car...just so you can dose....![]()

yeah i might keep my eye out for a turbo engine.. only reason i want to make it dose is because my wags is canary yellow and it's exactly like the BT1's but in a wagon so i kinda reckon it'd be something different to see a canary yellow wags dose..

by a 900$ complete conversion, get a dose pipe. Then you can dose your wagon all you want.
Until it blows up.
+ a cooler
if your that keen on it,
go and buy a turbo motor, and you dont have to worry bout all the part's and you will no the motor will be strong,
