Been looking around the internet, bored and came across this tuning company, they claim to fit a turbo to the 1.4 8v and have a video to show, not sure what it would be like, and couldn't imagine how much it would cost, a 155hp 500 they have is £3500 for the conversion. Interesting though

Its a 16v isnt it? Its completely pointless when you can buy a 1.4 turbo'd engine as standard in the car.

This is what I was looking at but apparently its for the 1.4/1,2 8v engines, yes pointless I know but interesting never the less, is this on par with the T-JET you reckon because they say they use a different Garret turbo to the T-JET, doubt it will be as tuneable as the T-JET surely, ah well, kudos for them trying.

Its impossible to say without getting them side by side in a race.

Yh true I think we know which one would turn out the cheapest though lol

And the T2 is ancient, will likely suffer from massive lag.
