Need a little help

[gr3gory96]

i have a A140 and was wondering if it was possible to put a turbo in it , but the engine bay is too small or is there any other way of making the performance better?

From the wording of your question, I'd suggest the way to improved performance is to sell it and get a car with the performance you desire.

If you were competent enough to "put a turbo in it", which is a decidedly non-trivial task, you'd already know all the other possible ways to improve performance. The most you can hope of are minor gains from a remap, which you'll get used to very quickly, and you'd still get left for dust at the lights by diesel vans. As i understand it, the A140 is either a 1.4 or 1.6 petrol with 82PS and virtually no torque.

I hope you don't find that too disheartening, but I'm afraid it's reality - welcome to the forum!

As Troon,,, just not possible without great expense

Not sure what age A class but if it's the orignal A class then it's far cheaper to get an a210 Evo (if you still want an A that is).
