Metro turbo
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi all, I am designing a mini powered single seater and considering the Metro turbo unit. What can I expect to pay (want to strip and re-build) and any idea where to find one?
Cheers

i payed ?145 for a engine and all ancilleries plus a spare turbo and exhaust manifold and a load of other n/a bits...... suitable for rebuilding aparantly..... bollox to it.... i rebuiuld it when i blow it up!!!!

on ebay they go all day long for ?300

And on the 7th day........... God created turbochargers!

You dont need a metty turbo lump. any post 89 a+ engine is the same bar pistons and cam so if your rebuilding its not worth paying more. then just pick the other bits up as you go.

Ah Iain
so I can pick up any A+ post 89, how hard are the turbo units to retro fit?

complete unit on ebay reputed good,i have bought items off the seller before and had no probs.

yep.

its as easy as building a turbo engine up. they're the same bar pistons and cam

If your going for a rebuild its the way to go.

cams are the same iirc..... assuming your using a non mg 1275....
