KZ engine as turbo platform

I will be experimenting with a similar setup this year.

I will turbocharge the 2144cc 130hp engine in my 80TQ project, at least in
the early stages. This is done mostly because I am curious, but also since I
want more time to do all the mods to the JY engine (from a 200TQ -85) before
I install it.

I aim for 220hp+ from the 80Q engine, I will be using a 3mm copper gasket to
lower the static compression to resonable levels. The only change to the
block will be drilling the hole for the oil return line, no changes will be
made to the head. I will get the oil for the turbo from the oil pressure
switch. Custom manifolds are used for exhaust and intake. The intake
manifold is based on the bottom part of the stock intake.
