   quality of the cituning kit is poor to say the least and they seem to have a thing for running 8psi on standard pistons. as paul said go carworx.

   carworx is around 3k iirc, cituning is less but doesnt include clutch, injectors, intercooler and some other things.

   if you are going turbo power, you defo need everything to go with it or your in trouble.
   
   carworx can supply you with the lot and give good results with their work
   
   They may cost a bit more than cituning, but the extra money will be well spent and you will see more power for your money than you will with cituning.

   there was a lad on here before that had turbo conversion done by cituning and thought it was rubbish with bad customer service,so i would give carwox a ring mate

   Never heard a good thing about the cituning conversions. Carworx always get good comments.

    i agree with sean, depends on what you want from your car?
    3k will get you a basic turbo setup then you can add to that with extras later on for more power, but a word of warning, the more power you crave, the more expensive it gets!

    pay extra for the t25 if thats not the std turbo, as its the easiest way of getting extra power later, as the T2 will get starved eventually.
