so im going to have to do something else :roll:
there is a 1.4 turbo saloon near me, which is a very similar idea.
I doubt you'l find something to do that's completly unique. unless it involves a v12 or something....
Supercharger ?

look at this photo i can see two things wrong there
http://i12.ebayimg.com/04/i/04/61/34/3d_1_b.JPG
1. Intercooler way to small ;)
2. Whats the cooler doing there, the rad must heat the air up and be crap :roll:
i thort that baxter but not knowing much about engine and stuff didnt say out cause thort it was funny place to put it!
also the pipe for his air filter looks like he robbed it from the back of the washing machine.

Wouldn't have thought that. It is only a small engine after all....
indeed, that will keep the pressure drop to a minimum so the engine hasnt got to work the turbo so hard to get the power back.
get DTA for the turbo, i wouldnt personally be happy running megasquirt on a non N/A application

intercooler in front of the rad is fine, but one of the size to fill out a big mouth bumper may cause a bit extra lag but charge temp will be very low.

General Baxter

just wondered cus i have only seen a few carb turbos. there was one in an old old old fast car that had a 1.3SR turbo it looked pretty damn good! bet it cost a bit 2 do though considering the car itself acually cost a bit to buy at that time
