phil05 0 Posted July 22, 2006 Hi just some advise from all you pug petrol heads about can you help i have got a 2.0 8v turbo engine out of a xantia and i was just wondering do they fit in the 205 gti if so is it hard to do or do you need to shorten things etc and do you need all the ecu and wiring to be swapped they look the same. And if anyone has done the conversion is it any good for power compaired to the 1.9's Thank for your help Phil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
inferno 1 Posted July 22, 2006 this has been covered loads if you run a search... but in short yes it fits, its not completely straight forward, involves some wiring and custom pipework, but the end result is impressive Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sonofsam 5 Posted July 23, 2006 Hello Phil05 and welcome to the Forum. I have recently finished this conversion into my 205, your not too far up the road from me so if you did want to come round for a butchers drop me a pm and i can let you know the in's and out's of it. I hoping to have the car road legal in a few weeks! I've had the engine running for a while now but the whole car has had a full rebuild. I would say its one of the more involved conversions as concerning the wiring, but nothing that cant be overcome. Cheers Sam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
