i had one and it was doing around 29-30 mpg were as my 2.2 vectra is only 26-37 mpg,

only thing i reccomend is while your viewing it after a good test drive let it tick over for a good 5-10 mins and check theres no smoke, as theres alot of pre-owned ones thats had clueless to turbo owners, a lot will have neglected turbos (not pre-heating & not cooling) so check that, but then again i would reccomend a vxr turbo for it!

how much to upgrade the turbo and will their be any gains?

i had mine about 3 years ago now and they was about £500 and gained approx 10-15 bhp with uprated acuator, keep an eye out on ebay, i got mine from there for £300 and it was a new product then!

also a larger intercooler works well, but the very first thing to do, and i see so many without this done still 'SILICONE BOOST PIPE' get them for about £100 or get a stainless one, the OE rubber one on full boost expands to about twice the size and as there now getting older they'll be weaker!

Thanks for the info much appreciated m8

vxr injectors and a remap would see some good gains too
