I believe someone's done it in a pug 106 but I don't know the details of how they did it. Probably involves new custom mounts, pump setup etc but I'm not familiar with the engine in the 306

IMHO it would be more hassle than its worth.
The 1.5d is a good wee motor,I had one years ago and it ran on fresh air,the fuel gauge rarely budged,it was brilliant.

Yes it's possible and has been done before. There is a vid of a 106 with an xud9 on YouTube. Also search on 106 owners under my username for my progress thread and links to other threads I've commented on on the same question.

There is an idiot on the 306oc who has fabricated a turbo on to the 1.5
No other major mods just an uprated pump!

Nowt wrong with that at all. The diesels are pretty hardy and will stand a reasonable amount of boost. Unfortunately, the standard clutch can't handle more torque than the tud5 kicks out with about 8 psi behind it.
Anyway, hers the youtube vid to prove that an XUD9 into a 106/saxo can be done http://youtu.be/TUvBjyib6Tg
One thing I do know from experience, the XUD9 won't fit with the standard top mount intercooler that the 306 comes with. The reason being that the standard manifold clouts the brake servo, so you will need a manifold like that seen in the vid above. That style manifold comes in stuff like an 806/zantia/xsara etc.

I can't imagine it wouldn't be the most exciting conversion to be done considering the 2.0 d turbo or 1.9 lump has similar power to a vtr, right enough you'll have a 2.0 td but the sheer weight difference in the front would surely have drastic effects on the handling.
