Default Another one for Kjdmk1

Kev have a look at this, VAG turbo conversion for the elise, i've heard of the CTR conversion before but an Elise with 250-300bhp turbo engine would be an animal

I've read about these on the lotus forum Its an approx 9k conversion and a bit of a beast. I should think its a bit of a handfull in the wet though

PS Stop trying to spend my money

I would imagine it would be a handful in the dry aswell. Wouldn't mind a go of one though. A guy i know is considering the CTR conversion.
I've ran out of money to spend so need to help everyone else to spend there's.

Is that a honda type R conversion?
If I was going down that route I think i would go for the N/A honda engine.
With the VAG one I should think that when the turbo kicks in all hell breaks loose.
