Well i'm looking at a tubro donk at the mo for just a stright drop in, after a clean tune and a few replacement parts. i'm going to get the work done at Daylesford Dyno if i decide to stay local - this is cause i know they guys there and they have done some good work for me in the past still no idea what the conversion will cost me all up - but the most exoensive bit is always the labour - thats the killer! i hope to have some figures after i secure the turbo donk
