Hi, Have you or a friend got a welder and/or any good at it?
With a weekend and about $50.00 worth of 1 inch ID steam pipe bends you could make a pretty sweet turbo manifold set up for your A14.
Is your turbo fitted with a carbon seal (can it be converted?) if so you could make a very simple draw through turbo setup, I have run a draw through turbo setup on my A15 for 10 years plus (30+psi boost)and found it to be both economical and very reliable.
On the other hand you could go for a blow through setup (if your turbo is not fitted with a carbon seal) however this type of setup is a little more tricky to get setup and get running properly.
A turbo charged A-series is a beautiful thing and make buckets of torque all on standard internals, just don`t rev the piss out of them (6000rpm+)
Somthing to think about anyway.
Cheers,
G O T H E D A T!!
