K-tec turbo kit been used

[u33db]

K-tec seem to do a low-pressure turbo kit fot the 19/clio 16v costing about 3k (obviously cheaper than BB) but i havent heard of anyone going for it.

Has anyone seen or tried the conversion or offer any input as to its quality/reliability etc?

Hasnt Nick Read got a turboed valver? I assume its not the K-Tec one though.

nick has bbs

well actually he owns it. never actually seen him with it its permanently in garages being worked on!

3 grand for a turbo? seems a bit OTT seeing as u cud buy a valver for that much!

3k yeah but consider that bbs kits cost 5k minimum and about 7k for the full works. The other advantage of the k-tec one would be that becuase its low pressure (190bhp max or so) it wouldnt be quite so severe on gearboxes, clutches etc.

Strange that theres no-one with it though...
