I think BB will do throttle bodies. In there brochure they mention them but dont say they do them. They state that it is a route you can take with the valver or willy etc.
Is it only for the 1800cc or can it be done on the Willy? Im asumming it can as they are virtually the same.
Would ithe conversion be faster on the willy lump compaired to the 16v lump?
If so what sort of power would the turbo willy lump put out
Ktec are only more expensive than BB for some parts. They told me yesterday that the expected price of there turbo conversion will be around £1000 cheaper than BB.
I had my old Nova SR broken into twice in 6 months. I got so pissed off that I sold it to a lad down my road who also had it broken into within 6 months, he also got pissed off and put it up for sale. I saw it so i brought it back for half the price i sold it to him for. I had it a couple of...

Just recieved the BBTuning brouchure today. Every page i looked at i decieded that i wanted something off of it. Thing is im skint and now depressed as i want so much stuff for the valver.

Some point this yr i maybe getting a willy lump put in. would the Hill Power chip that i will be getting in next few weeks work with this. Will it just need re-mapping or do i need a different chip for the willy lump?

With the K-Tec can you still hear the induction kit? I want the K-Tec but dont want it to drown out the sound of the induction like some zorsts do!

Iv got 133mph out of mine with 17s and 130mph with 15s
I dont know if mine is topping out at that. I sh*t myself doing that speed as i need to keep my licence!! So i back off!!
Raced my birds XSi 106 the other day and was supprised as that done just over 125mph and thats only a 1.4!!!!
Kev
I got a magnex and they are fine. I think mine looks a little standard ish. Personally in the next year i will be buying a new one as i want a little more brunt so will be buying the K-Tec. It looks the nuts!!!!

Just looked on BBTunings site and it is £250!!! Im sure last time i looked it was cheaper than that. Thought it was about £179 +vat.
Hill Power it is then!!!!!
I got a few questions i need answering before investing in a chip and de-cat.
1)Where is the best place to go to have my 16v chipped. I have narrowed it down to Hill Power & BBTuning
Everyone says Hill Power is brilliant but i have also heard good things about BBTuning. They are both round...
