right i have been offered a ci tuning basic turbo conversion kit, only the stage 1 turbo kit, my mate offered it me for 500, its around 2500 on the website, hes got everything which is in the kit, they say its a straight bolt on kit which runs 6psi of boost, they also say you don't have to do no engine management or internal modifications, people are saying tho you need to remap the ecu, so i don't know what to believe, how does it work, the turbo kit is for a saxo vtr but will fit on the 206 xs 1.6 8v as they are identical engines, any uphands on this? Smile

Standard compression would be too high for any boost, does the kit include a decompression plate?

It's fine for a small amount of boost.

For the £800 (turbo and insurance) you coult just sell your xsi and buy a gti and not have the reliabilty issues you will come accross by fitting the turbo. Also doesn't sound like you know what your doing so I wouldn't be attempting the turbo fit as every problem you come accross will need looking at by a garage.
