Once you start down the rabbit hole keep your wallet open lol :lol: look at ratty and me you have to decide to keep going you will never get ur money back as someone else said if you are going to do it do it once and do it properly and it's more like 6k+ you will want to sleave the block :shock:
If it looks like jobby and smells like jobby it probably is jobby!

The guy who ran a turbo Lude for the longest and used it as a daily, is @sir si.
Look at his profile build for the best idea of what is required.
I think the only actual upgrade in his engine internals was mahle pistons (possibly also added bigger injectors, can't remember) and he ran that for at least 2 years, then got piston slap.
He chucked a low mileage standard h22 in there but that died within a few weeks unfortunately.
@Si import also has a lot of experience with turbo h22s (although you won't find the profiles of his turbos on here, only on PUK)

Merlin has sorted you with the links anyway 8-) But for future reference, if you click on where I tagged his username in my post, it takes you to his profile. Most active thread on his member profile, was his car profile :) (RIP :cry: )
