Just talk to somebody ! Anything is possible!
Price is usually the problem! but if you know what you want in life , it's not usually a problem, it's knowing what you want?

They'd have the change the compressor, diffuser, combustion chamber, front casing, add the ceramic burner, change the firmware. Depending of the age of the engine, they might have to change the turbine wheel and you'd probably want to go for a new set of bearings as well. That would probably get the upgrade around 1000 to 1500 Euro. The good news is that if you wait a bit, that might become cheap enough in GB £...
