Right been on here a while now, so I thought I would start a wip thread. My cars a 1992 cavalier Gsi 2wd. The plans are to whack a turbo lump in and make it a fast road cav.

Went out for a spin with my mate, and my cam belt cover decided to loose its bolt . My mate had some tape in his astra so we had to do a quick fix till I got home

DIY FTW! Hope to see you on the 25th, put your name down when you know you can make it as I'm trying to negotiate a discount on entry fee based on numbers

Decided to keep the cav. Got a fresh mot on it today, needed some welding, track rod end and lower ball joint.

I totally understand that you would want to modify your gsi but would it not be cheaper just to buy a turbo? Could be cheaper to insure too. Declaring a different engine could be costly..
