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

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 :lol: :lol: :lol:

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 :?:

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 :D
All the turbo Di Convoys were 100PS :wink:
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 :)

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.

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??
