No way, far too much money.
I'm not really even interested in Ł600+ for one TBH.

seen it done on an rs2000 i4 engine. didn't know they could fit a cvh as well. mind you i suppose if you're handy with a hack saw and welder you can make most stuff fit.

Do u no what saab it was off?
There is going to be alot of investigation into this before i say make me one because i have got about a nats cock of room left in my engine bay.
What about on the inlet side of things? Where your boost pipe goes on to the turbo that must be coming out at a different angle now?
Sorry for all the question im very interested in you making one for me now im just trying to work out in my own mind how its all gonna go in my bay.

That could be a problem with moving it an 1" closer to the rad but I am sure I could work something out.
As for the Saab exhaust housing I just need to make sure it will fit on my T34 ok.
If you could find out which one it is then i can ask turbo technics who made my turbo if it will be ok.

Jim
