engine bay mods.....
Turbo Mini Forums

hey, um......i put my car into be paint'd but i only just realised that i might have to cut the engine bay to bits in order to fit the turbo, intercooler ect. I told the bloke not to paint it and im picking the car back up on thursday but i dont know what has to be cut out and what i can leave, can someone send me a diagram/picture of a matro turbo enginebay or better yet an engine bay that has been modified, i know mine will most likley be different in some ways but i want somthing to work off. There arn't any metro's in australia so just a pic of the engine bay with some dimentions would help.

Thanks a stack.

There's a thread in the How To section on Turbo boxes.
Some of the links to pictures are broken but there's a link to some of Turbo Dave?s Pics.

You can buy the correctly sized box to weld in from various suppliers or you could try a t2 Turbo no need then as they just fit

thought i would mention keith that there are a couple of pics i posted on the opening page in albums, random pics showing my mini, this may inspire chris as well, showing the box if i can recall W/270mm D/75mm forgot the hight though, but its 10mm off the top of the subframe.
