Richie-Van-GTi 74 2 Cars Posted June 7, 2006 any of the pug or citreon 1.9td's will be a decent donor. Its easier if you can get the one to match IE KKK or garrett but its the samne amount of work to switch to any of them. Try ringing a few local places and ask about having yours reconned as S/H turbos could be just as bad or worse than the one you have now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hd_andy 2 Posted June 16, 2006 Slightly unrelated, but what oil are you using, I was going to use 15W 40 but GSF wanted to sell me 5W 40? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
