O.K. I know you will get a lot of questions about how to put a turbo engine into a car that people already have BUT I have had in the past cars that I have had turbo modifications done to like a Fiesta XR2, Rover 214 SEi, and i've also had a standard Fiat Punto GT Turbo (which was SH**E) so if I say that I'm after a turbo conversion then I mean that I'm after one (eventually after all other mods.), I've enquired at places like breakers yards for the engine and running gear etc. but with no luck so does anybody know of anyone who supplies and preferably fits a reconditioned T16 Turbo engine with all the gear to run into my ZS?? I know that this is a long shot question!!

Been meaning for months to ask this question:- what does "PM" exactly mean and how would I do it on this site when I find out what it is???

Adrians a very clever fella while i was there he showed me his own ZR he'd put an evo 9 engine into a 2004 ZR he said when he finds time he will be putting the running gear into the ZR as well.

there's a thread over on theMGZR.co.uk about that Evo 9 ZR I'm sure... it's going to be mental when it's done

AAutosport have done a few conversions for members on here and seem to be quite cheap.

You just need to keep an eye out for a cheap engine. Perhaps try Golide as that's who I got mine from. He seems to find them quite regularly!

Drew has been in the game a long time and it looks like he will be building my race engine once the fine details are worked out.

he was on with a zr 105 that had a turbo conversion when i was there he did tell me roughly about 1500 i think he provided the engine and bigger turbo

best bet is to contact him. You might need to phone a few times though as he's a busy lad. I tried 3 times before I eventually got hold of him

email goes straight through to his phone so he might answer that quicker but as maxxed_ross says very busy it is hard to get through
