Turbo Time

Right Heres a small update, after a few weeks of research ive decided to turbo charge the engine. I already had a garrett t25 laying around so i stripped this down and gave it a good clean but unfortunatly its no use for what i need. Good job id not ordered the rebuild kit yet lol.





The problem i had with this turbo was that the turbine housing and wheel were larger than the compressor which on a bike engine will not spool up fast enough so i now need to get either a T2 from a Renault 5 or a TD04 16T from a Volvo. both of these turbo's should give me a turbine housing that is smaller then the compressor for a faster spool up. I will update as soon as i get the turbo i need. Hopefully not long now.
