...turbo conversion

Well this has been a bit more difficult than i firstly thought.

A few weeks has passed and ive discovered there's much more too it than just bolt it up and go.

1st step - i upgraded my 32/36 too a 34 Adm (surpriseingly this carby has indeed got a fair bit more go! even without the turbo)

2nd step - Modified the intake box that sits on top off the carby from a 50mm pipe too a 70mm pipe intake pipe...

And bolted both off them down...

Pic's at (also in the pic i hav sat the piazza manifold and RB20 Turbo on top off the extractors)

-This pic may take a while but wait for it and it should automatically shrink down too screen size!

And 2day i rang Turbo shop in the yellow pages just asking a little bit off information on wat else has too be done...
The responce i got is...

The engines Compression Ratio has apparently gotta be 8:1 or below.

A EFI fuel pump off a VL & upgraded lines & return lines.

Oil&water lubrication, (now i know where the 4 pipes on the turbo is mean too lead too)

other than that - wat is the compression ratio for the isuzu 2Litre??? (stock standard)


im out.. rod

ahh the blow-thru technique,

looks a bit like a mess at the moment, but am sure it will look presentable later,

yes there seems to be more to it than bolt on here and there, just depends how much boost you want to run,

regards
