chrome, to be honest, for the price you will pay someone for an engine, box, rad, fans, loom etc etc you could pick up a WHOLE car. Now in all fairness, there are only a handful of DECENT turbo cars around, which yes, obviously you wouldnt brake one of those. But you should be able to pick up a total rust bucket for about £500 and have everything you need. I know its "not the way to do it", but its the best way to do it, for what you want to do. if u know what i mean
Your either interested in the topic or your not!
STICK TO THE GOD DAMN POST AND DONT SPAM FOR SALE POSTS WITH STUPID COMMENTS!

Ti wont give you all the parts you need, you would need a 220 nasp or turbo for the remainder of the parts , such as drive shafts, waterpump housing , pas pump etc.. Rad would need to be sourced from a turbo and the intercooler and frame etc.. could do it with the ti setup , depends if you want it oe ish. Also if you use a ti engine would need the sump/left hand cambelt mount, and the rear mount too. Gearbox would need the bits from a 220 also.
All in , look for a knackered 220/420 turbo.
The Storm Has Gone Again
