Thanks
I beleive Ecosse do such a conversion
Don't expect it to be cheap tho...
Hello,
Must be expensive. I'd be interrested in knowing the price of such a work, just for fun.

205 Diesel & turbo-Diesel :
Forget that rubbish and get this bad boy shoehorned into your 306 :) (to the OP)
Your best bet would be to get a 406SRI engine and transplant it into your current car. This is the safest way to get a turbo engine in your car. I have looked at this and there is WAY too much to do if you just wanna bolt on a turbo. I have a 1.6 and wanna either put a
2L turbo out of a 406SRI or a 3L V6 out of a 406 coupe in my 306. Aparently both these engines fit straight in. For sheer fun I would LOVE to put a V6 in just to see the faces on boy racers as you pull away with between 194 and 210 bhp. I think "SHIFT" would be redefined!3 main problems
1 - Insurance 2 - You gotta put a new loom in for the engine (involved) 3 - You gotta find the engine3 main advantages
1 - My god it would shift 2 - Your car will purr along at 80mph 3 - lift the bonnet and instantly melt!scott
How much would I expect to pay for the 3litre V6 engine then because that makes me weak at the knees just thinking about it...
Hello,
Well, quite expensive, but how many £ costs a brand new engine at Peugeot's ? Almost the same I'd say.
Now we could discuss about the handling and how easy drives a 220HP FWD, moreover a 220HP 306. Needs a pilot licence :-)

205 Diesel & turbo-Diesel :The 3litre V6 engine interests me but my insurance would cost a couple of grand itself
Bad idea, cos of the weight distro. Unless your twin turboing it for pure power, 350+++++
