5k, 236bhp, Quaife, B14s, all suspension bushes uprated, belts done.
Sell the Cup and it's less than the cost of the turbo conversion.
It's never a good idea to spend the money yourself on a car worth £1500-2000
Whilst I agree, you could save a couple of hundred going that way, I still think you can pick up some bargain converted cars so it becomes difficult to consider the conversion especially if starting with a bog standard car
I wouldn't bother.
£3200 low boosts your car.
Or you can buy a boosted car with a similar spec for £3000-3500, sell your car and you'd get much better spec for £5000-5500.
Boost should be the last tick on the spec sheet, after suspension, brakes and diff imo
I did search, and read that they don't.
However, memory tells me someone managed it but also got told by the garage who'd be fitting them that they'd already tried on another car after shaving 5mm off the calipers that they couldn't get their F1s on.
F1s are also ET43
Mines in for sale, it has all the big jobs done and belts due next year. It's up at £1600, if the belts job puts you off, I'll up the price to £2000 and get a specialist to do them!

Yeah, the adjuster is probably moving around on the bottom mount.
I think all other kits go the other way, Billies usually go this way apart from on certain models!
@KieranM take a look in for sale at my Cup, it's done most tracks in the UK as it is, all the suspension components have done less than 5000 miles. It's had it's coilovers removed for selling it on. Buy that at £1400 and a set of BCs and you've got a cracker for £2200.
