Astra LB/Pulsar N13 engine transplant

[raddavey]

Has anyone here swapped their E15/E16 engine with a CA18DE or a CA18DET?? Or any other swaps with this car?
How was the swap?

What other engine would fit straight in? Also the Pulsar ET uses the E15 engine correct? So is it straight forward enough putting a turbo and fuel injection on the standard E15 engine from a ET Pulsar?

Sorry about all these questions I'm very new to the car scene (Yes a P Plater)

The N13 pulsar doesn't have the E15, I don't know what the engine code is but it's the same as Camiras. The N12 pulsar/Exa turbo had the E15 turbo so it would be too old to legally fit. I havn't done it but the CA18DET is supposed to be a straightforward swap.

Yeah I was wrong. Its the N12 Pulsar which is the same and the LB Astra.

This uses the N15 engine correct? So an LB Astra could accomodate a turbo and fuel injection from a ET/EXA E15 engine with no problems? What is involved in the upgrade? And would my E15 engine need to be strengthend in any way? It has been fully rebuilt 10000kms ago.
