Default Escort Cossie Big T vs Little T ;)

ok chatting with a mate who is going to be selling his RX7 for a nice Escort Cossie

what are the advantages/dis-advantages or big turbo VS small turbo.

I told him if he wants over 330bhp to go for the big turbo....but am i right? i thought changing a small turbo to large was an expesive job, new loom, ecu, turbo etc.

Cheers

Paul

cheers Rolls

The guy selling the RX7 is Ian....you know the orange/grey RX7 going around. i've finally made him see sense

He is considering the small turbo as they are newer, but i thought he would be better with the big turbo as i know he'll end up tunning it
