turbo 2t how to

[Rat-a-tat-tat]

I've not really messed with turbo charging before -

For me to see approx 200bhp, is it simply lowering compression, fitting an intercooler and upping the boost ??

Do you change the cam's at all ??

Just wanted to give a public thanks to Mark for shipping me the turbo manifold.

A man of his word.

Kind regards,
Rob

We never got the 3T-GTE either, its called importers.

You can get 200hp (at fly or wheels) easily with a turbo T engine, but you dont need to use a twin cam head, there are a lot of successful 3T-C's (single cam) engines. 3T have all sorts of aftermarket parts designed for turbo application from usa (search usa ebay), 2T-G's aftermarket parts are mainly for high compression high reving.

too easy, find yourself a 2tg efi manifold, a 3tgte turbo manifold and turbo, buy an aftermarket computer, wire up and away you go.

What about retarding timing to avoid detonation?

I already have the 2TG twin so will use it.

I'd need to check compression - hopefully my head hasn't been skimmed too much.

Kameari Engine Works sell 3mm metal head gasket (nice gear train kit too), which should help to restore or maybe lower compression - but i don't think I need to go mega low comp' for what I am trying to achieve.

I'll just spec a suitable sized turbo, fit an intercooler and go from there.

But will browse 3T on US Ebay in the mean time
