Nope I don't I'm afraid, just keep looking on ebay/pistonheads.

There was a homemade turbo kit for the 1.5 on ebay not long ago, I'm not sure if it was sold or not - pm [b]evzee[/b]

It'll fit the 1.6 dohc lump, but not the 1.8 version - same as the MX5s, the manifolds won't fit between the models (both share the BP engines, with subtle differences)

the real difference between the mx5 engine and our own is that is is turned 90 degrees as the mx5 is a rear wheel driven car and our 323f are just fwd.
