Transit 101 HP or 116 HP?

[luci_sicoe]

Heloo, first of all my transit has died the turbo is broke, and I am searching a new car (i meant a tranny that could donate the engine).

So who want's to earn some money i am in search for a tranny with a 101 or 116 hp engine, '97, '98, '99, '00 year.

Waiting for answers from you guys, thank you verry much.

Or somebody could help me with some websites?

Do you need the EPIC pump and ECU
Or are you going to Bosch it up

[luci_sicoe]

In my opinion is better with the epic, what is your opinion about this. I know that with the bosch is more simple to change it.

Thank you Andy, you are the epic guru.

If you help me to find a good tranny 101 or 116 hp, in a week or less I will be in london.

Thanks mate!

I'll be honest and say that I've never driven/tried a Bosch converted turbo Di, so I can't compare
Some say they are faster, but if they've been driving around with the red light on, even a non turbo will seem faster

For simplicity and in your position (meaning no access to proper EPIC code reader) it might be an idea to go along the Bosch route

This also means that ANY turbo Di engine fitted with 100PS injectors will do and no worries with all that immobiliser and ECU wiring/headache

What's your budget

[luci_sicoe]

Heloo mate sorry for the late reply. I could offer around 1000 £, and also if you could find out what is the corect procedure to drive a car all the way from England to Romania, I mean what paperwork do I need from the seller to drive the car and what tax I'll have to pay and how much.

Thanks Andy, I won't remain in debt with you, honesly!

Thank a lot!

Looks like you'll need to fly over and drive back in a lovelyTransit or LDV Convoy TDi
All the turbo Di Convoys were 100PS
Not sure what paperwork you'll need for driving abroad, but you'll need Insurance Tax disc and MOT to drive it in/through the UK

[luci_sicoe]

So what do you think, you could find one that won't pass the budget?

About the transport, what if I have the option with a truck? Put the tranny in a truck that comes to romania (I have a friend that would help me with this).

Honesly I'd preffer a Transit instead of a LDV, because I could use some other parts.

Thanks a lot Andy.

[AndyG]

Ok, I'll keep an eye out

Thanks mate, no need any more, I have find a banana engine and fited in. He isn't the same old tranny but will see. I will try to repair the turbo with a turbo repair kit or try to buy one from ebay, and I will fit it on the banana.

What do you say about this??

Chears

[AndyG]

Sounds good to me
Ultra reliable with the banana
