turbo 202

[VRSS]

does anyone know of a company that does turbo kits for 202's?
im looking into turboing my 202, it would be something pretty different.
if anyone knows a place doing turbo kits and rough price that would be sweet cheers

you would almost be better off putting a V6 in it, more reliable and probably cheaper

supercharger kits are much easier to fit and more readily available.
i was going to install a turbo, but it was just too much messing around with oil lines and exhaust brackets, specialy on the straight six where exhaust and intake is on the same side...

if i think back, i was going to custom make all the pipes and brackets cos it would work out cheaper.

the supercharger is a good option cos it sits on the other side of the engine to the manifolds, and there fore there is heaps more space. when i was pricing up the difference, i think the supercharger kits came out cheaper, and that was $2100. Castlemain rod shop do supercharger kits for these engines.

hope this helps

if u want a turbo y didnt u buy an import. trying to turbo an aussie car or a na car is way to hard and to much messing around like vin said if you want more power supercharger there a hell of alot cheaper and its instant power you dont have to wait for the turbo to spool up and y would you want to go nuts on your frist car learn how to drive it before you make it have mad hp

[VRSS]

the only one i've seen was a home made one and he wanted about $1500 for turbo and manifold...looked pretty rough though, and the carby was next to the battery!

[VRSS]

Looks good, ive seen a setup on ebay before a few months back.

I just did some research with web surfing and i may have found a site that can help out a few ppl who arre intrested in a turbo http://www.fullboost.com.au/index.php

Yeah i would chuck on a supercharger rather than a turbo for a couple of reasons, more power and cheaper unless u plan to custom make a lot of parts.

the laws and cops in SA are a lot less draconian than you guys, so you can get away with a lot more

i.e. we dont have roadworthy's

Living in NSW, I've had some very border line cars when it comes to legality of modifications. I've never had any trouble with the cops. So long as you stay away from the known hoon hot spots, don't drive like a F*#KW!T and don't fit ridiculous wheel sizes or obscene body kits, they won't bother you. We have an apprentice who has a basically stock Mirage except for a set of wanky wheels and a spoiler. His defect count so far this year is seven. The road worthy check in NSW is a safety check, not a design check most mechanics couldn't give a rats arse about what modifications you've done to the car, so long as there's tread on the tyres,the lights work and there isn't rust hanging out of the thing.

umm, really there isnt anymore power from a blower rather than a turbo, it just depends on the boost your running...
