Can I Fit A Turbo on A Corsa Club 1.7 Di?

It’s possible but potentially very costly. Several things must be considered, including: (1) The current compression ratio of your engine – it will need to be lowered because of the increased air pressure in the manifold and combustion chambers from the turbo. (2) The fuel pressure regulator may need to be changed. (3) The intake and exhaust manifolds will need to be replaced with manifolds that have additional ports for the turbocharger connections. I’ve been asked this question many times by modding customers. It’s usually cheaper (and safer) to just buy a car that has a stock turbo as opposed to spending a lot of money on turbocharging a naturally aspirated engine.
