Your thoughts please. I am considering (Not right now) either a turbo or engine swap for my C180 (to a C180 K). Now I know what some of you are going to say, for the money you could buy a new car. Which I agree with, but its just a conversion I am considering, which is a more viable option?
 
Look like your swaying towards Koolvin who put a Turbo on his C180 W202 if only he still visited the forum often he would have been able to give you some tip top advice. In my opinion buy a C230K W202 more car for your money.

I knew you'd say that, but I want to go crazy :devil: (Not right now though as finances are not permitting undue craziness)
 
I only think thats the more economical thing to do its gonna cost you big money for a new engine and likewise for a turbo kit like Koolvin's. So why not just get a new W202 if you get a facelift one you will get alot more gear and better interior and exterior touches as i can see yours is a 1994 pre facelift
