Hey, check out Alpine Developments. They are aout of Africa, but you can order a turbo kit for your car for about $1900. For you Canadians, it might be different. http://www.topgear.co.za/Alpine-Developmen...ents/index.html

Alpine has already stated that their Turbo Kit was made specifically for the 2.0 liter engine and not the 1.8.

They have specifically stated that it WILL fit the 1.8 L and the 2.0L

Hootie, who have you talked with at alpine that said/says differently? The 1.8 and 2.0 are so similar to eachother I cannot think of a reason the turbo would not work/fit.

I'm just going by an e-mail that was forwarded to me from Alpine. I could be wrong. It stated that the kits were specifically designed for the 2.0 liter engines and not the 1.8. The 1.8 is similar but not the same.

If I can scrounge it up I will post it for ya.

Please do. The last e-mail I got from them said that it does fit. Better yet. I will call their Install guy here in the states. He's here for my Supercharger install and the turbo install. He will know.
