Wouldn't touch a diy kit mate

Plenty of multipoint kits will work fine on turbo cars though yes

TBH mate I shoudl think that is mildly based upon a Honda engine is it not ? if so the valve seats would suffer from errosion in quite a short amount of time so its really not worth it.

Isn't that bad enough lol

LPG Kits were developed for the rovers.

The later 75 model with turbos had a OMVL kit on them, multipoint but a little crude, I occasionally have to change a set of injecotrs on them but besides that they seem "ok"
