Blu_Box 12-05-2003, 03:08 AM It sure might. Big question - How much boost? and Engine Management? Can't just slap on a turbo w/o more fuel, and some timing adjustment. Might even need a new head gasket, or some bottom end work. I think you could safely boost about 6-8 PSI.

Yes. DjFrOsT 12-05-2003, 05:22 PM what other engine mods would need to be done with a turbo upgrade? TheRedBox 12-05-2003, 06:31 PM you need a whole lot. but in trying to keep it simple.. the most important parts is fuel and fuel management DjFrOsT 12-05-2003, 06:47 PM what about internals? like pistons...cams...pulleys...anything like that? are we gonna have to run rocket fuel if we get a turbo kit?http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/404.gif |
