Hello all. i am usually over at HP.com. I have a 2002 1.5L accent. Since i just blew my head gasket, my project is up in the air. The turbo project, that i was going to put on in may. Since i will prob have to have some head work done. Im thinking about going beta.

I have done some research on it. But its been a while.

I forget what years motors will work??? I dont what that CVVT shit...

 I know that the tranny will mout right up, but what clutchs will i have to use?

Also i know that the 1.5 ecu should work with the 2.0. Just  have to rewire the MAF to th MAP.

I can buy a mount off the site here and that fixed.

How easy is it to swap it in. Just put in the new pass side mount and hook up everything and off we go, or is it a little more that that?

I have 800 bucks to spend, do you guys think that will cut it??

 

Thanks... love the site

800 will be fine thats about what mine was!! If you go into the beta swap form it should answer most of your questions.

The only thing thats really

The only thing thats really stoping me is that i just droped in a 340$$$ spec stage 2 clutch, in the 1.5... I dont want to lose that yet... not inless that clutch will fit the beta fly wheel..
Also im taking to a company about building me a pnp megasquirt as well.

I also have all the turbo parts to turbo my 1.5.....
