Turbo??

[wildfire78]

Right guys i have a question....

 

I bought this car as a stop gap till my licence was clean (soon) when i was going to be getting something with real power eg impreza type r/ evo/ skyline etc etc, But i have taken a real liking to my new cabriolet and plan on keeping it long term now, my question is tuning wise what would be best and more importantly cost effective, obviously i am not expecting the power of those cars but would like more oomph, turbo conversion? engine swap? throttle bodies ? been out of the "boy racer"/tuning scene for a fair few years now and lost alot of the knowledge i built up

 

I want suggestions on biggish power options and rough costs if possible

 

Ps i will be doing the usual mods like exhaust, filter, cams, chip, brakes, blah blah blah

 

Exhaust question.....Is it worth going for a FULL system + manifold (on standard 1.8 without BIG power options)? will it make much of a noticeable difference to a cat back system or even just a back box? i see Ashley do the full system + manifold for around £400 or maybe powerflow and just get one made.

 

Er yea thats about it for now tnx in advance

Chipped RS Turbo engine. Or if you want more power than that you could always do the ZVH (Zetec bottom end, CVH head) it's an option i'm saying i don't really see the point in it, but that's just me.
