No look in your other post
what is your budget?
what do you want out of the car etc as you will have to buy alot of custom parts to mak it work

ther is a few on ebay but you need to support them as the get hot and crack with the weight of the turbo on them
Ant @ A-Tech can build you a manifold and supply Mega Squirt to run the turbo'd engine
he is only in Kent so a UK based turbo nut is always good.
