A Turbocharger system on std parts will not require adjustments to the ECU, WHEN RUNNING a low boost application 5p.s.i max! All you will need to to is raise the fuel rail pressure with a Rising Rate Regulator, such as an FSE BPV. Get a boost gauge and an A/F ratio gauge and you can monitor your mix...

a supercharger is run by a belt from your crank, so the charger is always spinning at a great rate forcing air into the engine. A turbo charger is driven by exhaust gasses exiting the engine this takes a while to spin up and is known as "turbo lag" superchargers dont have this. What your talking ab...

i also forgot to say since i hope to be going over 200bhp it is likely that i will need to upgrade injectors, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator too :) There are three methods to increase fuel flow: 1) lengthening injector pulse duration 2) increase nozzle size ( larger Injectors ) 3) increase fuel...

I've got an easier more cost effective method for you... Get a diesel gearbox and either mate it to your block or strip both boxes down and remanufacture your box to include the diesel components and gear ratios! Then strip your car down, remove all electrics, electric windows, the rear seats, carpe...

i'm sorry mate but a head gasket is a known weakness of any engine, especially when you increase to high boost this requires multilayer gaskets to help with this known weakness, How is that not a bit cowboy?

a turbo will be expensive, you will need to lower compresion by either getting new forged pistons (best solution) or by using a sandwich plate which is a bit cowboy. A sandwich plate is not by any means a bit cowboy! There are tuning shops that use a sandwich plate when they turbo an engine if they...
