metro turbo is the last thing you want..... flat as a pancake..
get a mg 1275, 276-286 cam and a good stage 3 head and you'll see the metro off.

cool....
can't wait to get the engine under the hood of mine!
when i get some more money together it'll be getting a full respray too, with sportpack arches, and then when i get some more money either 13 by 7's or 13 by 6's

dont get a turbo, they suck and are for pussies who dont know how to get real power from their engine...
forced induction is cheating, get a weber!!

If yo want proper reliable (yes that's right) power and you want to keep the A-series then definatley consider a Turbo. Ok, the metro turbo was rubbish, but slap on an intercooler, drop the CR and up the boost and it'll fly.
Ive got 120 BHP and more importantly 120 ftlb of torque, which is more than any poxy 1380 is going to make, and I've only got 998cc.
