are you turboing without any extra fuel management?

Would love to know more about the fuelling, wouldn't mind doing it myself!

I'm still in the middle of sorting out the fueling il keep you posted

If thats an intercooler in the picture and you are going high boost, its going to need a lot of extra fueling.

Cheers

It's not hard. Just about chemistry, physics and engineering.......

Oh and make sure you take people's addvice

Can't wait to see how the fuelling is gonna be done, if it isnt overly complicated I would love to turbo mine Not after high boost but just a few extra BHPs

For a few (well, quite a few) more bhp, 16v conversion is easier. Low boost turbos just don't cut it in terms of performance or cost.

totally agreed, if your gonna spend all the money on converting to turbo you may as well actually have some boost and be able to go reasonably quickly.. Only need a few more bits to go high boost really. I'm planning to stick dual electronic boost controller on mine this year so i can have a pottering about setting and an actual higher 'driving' setting.

few pics for update

almost done all thats left id air fuel ratio gauge and boost gauge to go in and she ready for he 1st remap

shes been fully rebiult with sporting pistons and rods and all fresh new rings bearing u name it and its new and for a nice lil touch a custom intake manifold

next to get my uno turbo alloys re sprayed

will pull all the pictures and spec of car together and will post soon
