Engine dynamics turbo conversion

[George182]

At £2799 it seems ludicrously cheap!

Has anyone got any experience of this kit?

I have been contemplating forced induction for a while and had my heart set on a supercharger conversion, but for the money this option seems hard to ignore...

Buy cheap, buy twice.

I supercharged mine for that price.

Hmmm, I knew that phrase was going to rear its ugly head... (quite right too)

Really? Please tell me more!

There is a Rotrex on ebay at the moment for 500 notes so thats a start

Cheers, I'll have a look.. Is the build difficult?

There was one member that had it ben1 I think, no sure, tbh honest he didn't say a lot about it so probably not the best, there was a conversion in the for sale section a month back.

I'm sure i heard good things about it, granted it's not the best on the market but it's supposed to be alright. According to T.Trophy's how to build a turbo clio thread the turbo manifold they use is the same K-Tec sell...

Also there is a converted megane 225 engine in the for sale section for £650, i've just bought one along with a DCI gearbox and custom manifold too Project thread coming soon!

I've heard good things about it actually, the people i spoke to praised it but from what ive read the turbo they use is only ok for low boost so if you plan on going high boost in the future then that would need changing
