#2: Re: How many 206 gti 180 turbo's in the uk?? Author: DeadEyePaul, Location: Rugby,WarwickshirePosted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 6:45 am ---- I got a quote back from pug1off for turboing my v6
"Hi Paul,
This would be completely custom work, you’d have to expect to spend in excess of 10,000 for a half decent job. Supercharging may be a bit cheaper 6-7000 maybe. Then you need to think about the diff as this will be custom too.
Best regards,
Matt"
So I'm not going to do that anytime soon
#3: Re: How many 206 gti 180 turbo's in the uk?? Author: JamieM, Posted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 7:13 am ---- There is a 400 bhp one in circulation from Devil developments
No info on the car though, but my mate works there here and there and told me about it & I did see a picture.
There will be a few about that aren't on forums.
Only found out about some nos powered ones before because they ended up on ebay lol.

Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Tue Sep 04, 2012 11:57 am ---- For that money I'd be investigating the 1.6 turbo 207 GTi/Cooper S engine. Plenty of potential in those...although I think they use BMWs Valvetronic system rather than a proper throttle butterfly and all that might be difficult to hookup to a standalone ECU.

Name rings a bell, Devil Developments,
Rear mounted turbo apparently, 350 bhp & it's a 180.
That's what I was told, my mates Glanza goes there & he does a few other bits for mates, one works there on a weekend basis I think.
They could be just pulling my c**k, like I really give a s**t though lol there was a KMF 206 in a RR pic only the rear end and they said about it.

What a load of utter b******s. The DT loves to alter its timing daily along with piston ring failure on the DS side of the market.
The engine is shockingly bad
#13: Re: How many 206 gti 180 turbo's in the uk?? Author: Andy180, Location: Stoke on TrentPosted: Wed Sep 05, 2012 9:14 am ---- Isn't there uprated parts avalible for the timing now ? Mines been fine so far touch wood, can't comment on the piston ring failure issue with the ds .
#14: Re: How many 206 gti 180 turbo's in the uk?? Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Wed Sep 05, 2012 11:54 am ---- Never heard of any common engine complaints in the Minis...

Wasn't there a recall for something causing engine fires?
