Turbo or No Turbo?

[Pixel]

My loan got approved!

I should have my new car within a week and I will upload some pictures. Still, I have a decision to make. The Peugeot 206, 2.0 HDI.

There is a turbo version and a non-turbo version?

Both have 110bhp, 8 valves and 205 torque (Nm).

Id like the turbo version but should I settle for the non-turbo version if I find a nice one without?

What do you guys think?

Also, 8 valves is ok right?

Taking into consideration that I'm getting it remapped? Do they remap the ones with turbos?

The turbo is the only one worth chipping the gains are just not enough on the non turbos. Some older turbos cannot be easily chipped either so it would be worth checking the year and model with your remapper just to make sure.

Good point.

Looks like i'm in a bit of a pickle.

If I can only get the 2.0 HDi Turbo version, well... finding my car is going to be so much harder!

I went with the Turbo version, I'm picking the car up in 2 days and I'll post some pictures as I slowly improve its look.

Nice. Why not keep a video journal as well? (I have an idea about video journals in line with Fingers idea!)
