Hey All,
I've turbo'd a few different cars but never had anything to do with this engine. Its a mates and he wants me to boost it for him, so just a couple questions, cheers. (its an e16i, tbi engine in N13 pulsar)
Oil/water lines - are there any provisions? Or is it a case of drill a hole for drain, tap into oil sender for feed?
Fuel, its TBI, does it need to be modified? I'm not familiar on how it works, theres no air flow meter or anything (only had a quick look at the motor in the dark) does it have a map sensor or is it just throttle position/rpm mapping??? Will it handle blow through or is it best suited to a draw through setup (like carby)?. How much power is it good for? (handle say 6-7psi with a small cooler, you'd assume a ~ 50% power increase?) Or what are the options to upgrade?
e15et crossed my mind, but the engine and parts are impossible to find. I'll use somthing like a stock turbo from a ca18det, or maybe a small oil fed turbo if i find one. I have a mig and can custom make manifolds/piping etc, not interested in lowering the compression or opening the engine at all.
cheers
