Default Zetec Turbo??

Hello people, I was just wondering how hard it would be to convert my series 2 into a zetec turbo. What would I roughly need to buy and how much does it roughly cost?

cheers

Building the engine is the ''easy'' part.

Its all the other things you need to buy and fabricate that whack up the cost. Eg, your looking at 400 quid just for a decent clutch!
