Think about re-building the engine you have and adding a turbo to it. You will start with a fresh, purpose built engine.
If you're thinking about after market ECUs then ask your tuner what they recommend because they will get the best out of what they are familia with.
Out of interest are there many difference's between the stock engine and the BPT (aside from having a turbo hanging off it)? Such as head, cams, crank/rods/pistons, or is it a totally different engine?
