What shall i do, fix it or V6 it??

Post by TRAVIS BICKLE »

fed up now, my D8 2.0 8 valve turbo exec has been stood almost a year with a seized turbo, been running around in a 1 litre 206 i now need the estate running again but i cant find a turbo anywhere, so do i stick with it or do i put a v6 in it?

I've got a skimmed turbo head complete with turbo, etc sat in my shed. Would ideally like to get rid of it as a complete unit, so if you're interested drop me a PM...
