Hi Fayzaankhan

It is actually very simple and easy, only question need to ask is will you be running MP9 or aftermarket ecu system?

I have had my Caddy for a couple of years and have done conversions from carb to inj, 2.0 8v to 2.1 8v turbo :drool: . currently running a 2.1 20V turbo setup.

Mostly the conversions and parts all depends on you.

if you need any help or advise feel free to send me a mail slipperlip@gmail.com

Hi
New to this and hoping im posting in the correct section. I have a 2007 Caddy Panel Van 1.6 petrol. Heavy on fuel consumption and currently no power. Can not drive faster than 40km ph. I checked the spark plugs and they oily. Took oilcap off and that smelt of petrol. What could be the problem.
