There's a few obvious changes, but my guess is there's a lot more to it. Could any of the newer factory setups be adapted to fit my engine? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

This is why a large turbo is beneficial VS small twin turbo's. They are more efficient and dont create as much heat.
Also with a VERY good tuner, the higher compression ratio wouldnt be an issue, Sure you cant push the engine to the MAX but you can still squeeze another 50% out of the engine with ease. They'll mess with the timing and fuel curves to make it safe and reliable. Running an intercooler would be necessary, also running water injection would be a huge advantage due to your compression ratio. However with a "no budget" build (lies, all lies) yes some lower compression pistons should be in the mix to be able to push the turbo much harder. |
