i has been hackering for a turbo engine. so is it any good or am i better off with N/A engine ?

MG metro turbo engoine sound like good fun, i probaly change t3 to t2 for spool up faster.

I know i need bulkhead cutting, and return fuel tank, and fuel pipe to 8mm id, i would like to run it without ECU. is that possible.

there is loads of MG metro turbo engine about if you know where to find.

would it be good for daily driver?
