| Sweet build! Next year my 2375 is gonna get turbo'd with a nos port. I have been reading and reading and reading about turbo setup. Looks like you did your research too! |

| That is almost too pretty to crank! Very nice looking set-up. If it runs half as good as it looks, it should fly! |

1 5/8 piping is perfect. This setup should make 300 at the flywheel all day long. Smaller pipe would make it spool a tad earlier, but youll be just fine. id say start at 15 psi and about 22 degrees total with that dist. Just get a nice hot coil. pertronix one is great. get vid of it too. :)
Oh, and make sure that turbo has the correct seals in it. If it came from a blowthrough car, not a draw through car... It will have the wrong seals for drawthrough. Youll need to pull it apart and retrofit it. |

Hi Raaaid, hope things are going well with your build, sounds like I have a very similar build going back here in the 3rd world :lol:
Only problem is I have a way too big turbo on mine wich Miniman and the friendly fundi's around here were so polite to enlighten me about. So I'll be looking for a smaller turbo, though budget is low :oops: ,
Please let us know how it goes and tell us a bit about the spec's and turbo size on your engine?
Waiting in anticipation :twisted: |

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this a turbocharged stock 1600? |

what he meant is this will make 300 bhp for 5 minutes.
that NEEDS a demello crank in there, h beams and forged pistons at the very least..... |

what he meant was, this will make 300 bhp, for 5 seconds at 40 psi.
after that, suggest driver and bystanders have flak jackets... :D |
