I got some guy to do it for me.. well ma bro actually sorted it out for me and he got his mechanic to do it for free. a friend of mine works in a scrap yard so i paid very little, second hand (this is why i did it so quickly and it was cheap)

Its a T25 turbo 285cam with a front mounted intercooler and a superchip re-mapped... my mechanic took it off todai cos it was ****in the car up (he is an excellent mechanic so its not him.. could be the turbo..)

anyways.. i think im just gona keep this car or buy an Audi a3

That's crap because:-

A) The T25 turbo is too big for a 1.2 and wouldnt spool up until god knows when probably 4000rpm..... Thats the same turbo used on the Nissan Silvia and any other nissan with the SR20DET engine which is >2.0L in every application its on and its even a bit laggy on that engine!.

B) You would need more than a super chip to control a turbo'd engine. You would need a complete new custom ECU such as a mega squirt system which would handle boost etc.

C) You would have to uprate the fuelling such as a bigger pump, bigger / more injectors as well.

Just drop it as you know your lying. I don't mean to be bitchy but someone who drives around on fox alloys doesn't sport the money / knowledge to do a turbo conversion as everyone knows fox alloys are ****.

also a turbo conversion costs upwards of £2k, it's not the kind of thing you just 'take off' for the sake of it

yeah, same problem i had with the aston... so thought id turbo the punto, bolted it straight on no problems but my mum said it was naughty so i took it off 'for crack'

OK guys, dont believe him, but I have a Zonda, and every time I wanna take a pic, my camera is at home, and when I bring it, I'm at work so I cant attach any usb devices or upload stuff...

R12MUS, how old are you? Sound like a 12 yo

just read the thread now, how really f***in stupid can you get

maybe he really DID put a turbo on (ie homemade manifold, scrappie turbo, "custom" intercooler and boost pipes lol with no extra fueling, that would **** up anyones car )

BTW there IS a guy on puntomk2.co.uk that says he has upgraded from a T2 to a T25 on a 1242 sporting- says its running about 160bhp and sounds genuine, but you never know...

EDIT: and just so you all know, i have had a morgan aero 8 for the past month or two, but i dont dare put pics up, dave will kill me.
(with a T125 turbo and fookin massive supercharger FTW!!! :slayer
