for 4000 pounds you can get a full turbo setup with 300+ bhp. even that money will get you fitted and mapped a turbo engine swap i think. better to put your money on that

Marsdendean SPC were (before they went bump) were doing the turbo kits for £4500 IIFC, but a charger you can easily sell on.

The charger will fetch the same similar amounts of money you gave for it, with a turbo you will struggle to sell it on!

The turbo kit would be just as easy to sell on IMHO, as it produces far more power I would put my money in that over a charger.

thats for sure, after all the time and money spent it's very hard to part with a turbo. just love the power and feel of the car.
