Hey all just got rid of my Celica GT that was punching over 225bhp was a wee monster for racing and sleeper , but now have a sports wagon and well 125bhp is not cutting it for me I got this wagon cheap for 350! so its only needing minior repairs but upgrading the breaks and supsion from a WRX we have laying around, so was wondering if anyone could help or put me in the right way of turboing a sport or better to change engine ?

if this is wrong place i'm sorry new member

Sell it and buy a turbo car.

It's do able but you'll need almost everything from a turbo car bar the shell and seats.

hmm see what you mean so it could be costly then! i'll need to check what all laying about as doing a drum to disc convert tomorrow on the wagon as bearings needing replaced on nsr for mot , so it lower it a bit, hmm but on cheap side what a sports running gear with stand a turbo?

It's all different mate, the sport doesn't even have a rear anti-roll bar, and to get one on it you have to change everything and fit some mounts too.

Two different cars pal, I know this because a good mate bought a cheap one too and found out the hard way.

Sell it or just enjoy it for what it is.

even if i put the WRX back and front hubs and stuff? as doing that tomorrow for a MOT , hmmm might just buy a turbo like ya said haha make it easyer n cheaper

Ditch is right; don't waste cash on the sport, just buy a proper one
