stuart1298 6 Posted January 28, 2010 i'm gonna be running a 2.0 8v turbo, out of an XM, 1.9 gear box and mi16/gti6 fly wheel, what starter shall i use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul_13 212 1 Cars Posted January 28, 2010 Try and get a 306 dt starter, it's the slim looking one. Wouldn't bother with the beefy 205 starter they always fail prematurely in my opinion. They're £45 on trade from Halfords including surcharge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stuart1298 6 Posted January 28, 2010 any idea of a part number, any suplliers number will do, i can x reference on my work computer i had to put a new starter on the 1.6 engine and box about a month ago, brand new no surcharge was only £28 so that'll be on here soon as its probably no use to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul_13 212 1 Cars Posted January 28, 2010 Eh?? That's completely useful to you, it fits. As Baz says any XU starter fits and XU engine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stuart1298 6 Posted January 28, 2010 Wasnt sure if the ring gear would be different Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul_13 212 1 Cars Posted January 28, 2010 I'm pretty sure it'll be the same, a XU diesel starter fitted my GTI6 engine so I can't see yours being a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
