i need to weigh up the pros and cons of turboing this bob lump,
it would appear the engines are good for it as standard providing i have the right ecu.
ive tinkered with turbos before but never actually had one let alone built one.
as said im looking for about 300hp and preferably a lorry load of torque to go with it.
i dont want to just bolt a turbine on it, simple as... im gona strip and rebuild this with a few mods that i know work having built other engines.
i'd also like it to have an element of economy in it (maybe 2 different setups on the brain), purely efficient running stuff, not balls out maximum gains.
so what do i need???
obviously 2.8fly and 2.8gearbox
what turbo, ecu manifolds etc
