Hi just in the process of planning to put a turbo in ( before you reply, I'm waiting for turbo minis to except account ) I have the metro turbo 1275, can't seem to find if there is a kit I can just but, mega jolt ect or a list of separate items, why can't it just be simple lol
T3 1275 boring out to 1293 as apparently it's lined,
Going for ultra light fly well, having CA45 cam for now but will go for phase 2
Got dsn pulley
Ect ect

A gt1752 might be a better option. Get your cylinder head modified by Benross to suit your engine spec. I would also advise you to buy a decent ECU for the ignition. Don't forget you can also run sensors off the ECU, including a wideband lambda. Good intercooler, stronger pistons ect. :shifty:

There's no off the shelf kit available, but he required parts are easy enough to source. If you haven't already, have a look at my website, or find me on FB www.turbo-mini.com

Thanks Phil I have been reading your pages every time I'm sat waiting around for the misses lol I found this on eBay, but just wanted to know is it worth getting???https://www.ebay.co....tm/222109506796
I've asked the seller if the ecu if it runs vacuum, as some one hinted on far book,

So list I have so far is a:
coil pack of a Ford Fiesta or EDIS??
Omega Pistons
Phase 2 cam
Loads of money
Head modified ( engine is being balanced ect)
Ultra light fly wheel
Loads of money
Turbo clutch
A megasquirt or jolt ecu and trigger wheel
Don't know what sensor to get with that
Loads of dsn stuff :) and more money
Wiring loom that I'm taking off your site phill, I'm I wrong or missing any thing??

Fusion Fabs do a manifold and downpipe kit, so you don't have to cut into the bulkhead. This is something that I'm looking into, but have no experience with them or this kit.

theres no easy way to complete this project, I did the same as you and did loads of reading on phills website and on turbominis.

And make sure you design the oil drain correctly the first time round haga
