just a quick question, can I use a turbo from a 2.2dci in my 1.9dci. The turbo is bigger than the one in the 1.9dci isnt it? :roll:
cheers

I doubt it would fit as its coming from a different engine size.

if you search for turbo places on the net, you can find places that sell reworked standard ones for the 1.9, which would be a better idea, but there is very limited space with the turbo on the 1.9, and you may have to do alot of associated work to get the 2.2turbo to work correctly giving you any gains, ie more turbo lag, increase exhaust dia, ideally i would say speak to someone from a mapping place they would have a better idea.

the 2.2 dci turbo wont fit or be of any use to you. i have the 1.9 dci and have been intouch with a place called https://www.dervdoctor.co.uk and they said they can use the 1.9dci turbo and make it biggar for me. Its worth looking them up if youwant to go down thoes lines.
