Maybe add a few stainless blind rivets to give the sika seal maximum compression.

Other than checking to make sure sikaflex is suitable for drinking water.

If sika is not suitable you could use silicone for aquariums as they don't leech chemicals out. The rivets should hold it together if you ...

It would be awesome if you built it up N/A to 200bhp.
Really depends on your budget and how much of it you can DIY.

If you have a budget then go the turbo route IMO.

You might want to get a GPS receiver that can use an external antenna.
So you can buy one from ebay with the magnetic base and put it outside the car for better signal strength.

Your opinions? (80 series TD)

Hi guys,
Have been looking @ 80 series, Turbo Diesels.
Found one that has aftermarket turbo fitted back in 2000 but they don't know if the previous owner had the motor+gearbox rebuilt.

It currently has around 340,000 clicks on it.
Is a 91 model. I've read that the pre-95's would need some work done ...
