I want to add a turbo to my 1.6 NA motor. I know that
it doesn't have oil squirters, etc and I'll have to be
a bit careful with tuning etc so things don't get too
hot.
I'm planning on adding an EGT gauge with the
conversion to help with fine-tuning it and ensuring
that things don't go crazy temp wise.
I also know that to keep temps in line I might have to
detune it a bit which will naturally reduce the power
output.
However, I am sure it will also give me somewhat of a
boost in power, economy, and smokelessness.
I know there are a bunch of different turbos out there
and since I am going to have to buy one, I guess that
means that I have my pick.
Question: For what I'm doing, is there a
recommendation on which turbo I would have the best
results with?
Thanks,
David
