redtop to turbo

[NOVA_LEE]

how easy is it to make a standard redtop engine turbo'd?
just curious..........

[James P]

you have to double head gasket them to get the compresion down. and drill oil pipes in the head.

then buying the turbo etc ect, its expensive. id rather put throttle bodies on it instead for the cost and time it will take.

honestly mate its been covered loads of times!

Pistons/cams/exhaust manifold/turbo/loom/sensors/ecu/throttle body are all different/needed.
Its cheaper to buy a LET, unless your planning on rebuilding it with forged pistons etc.

Dont know what is meant by drill holes in the head, the heads are identical :confused:

ill just keep it standard redtop, goin from a 1.2 to 2litre will be enough power for now lol
