I am really surprised that they have a turbo manifold that nice for the M42/44 engines. That is really cool though. Good luck! | | | | | 03-17-2006, 02:56 AM | #3 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Melbourne, Fl/Athens, AL Posts: 393 |
Sweet, a turbo build. I've been looking into turboing my car in the future also. I like being different, so no DASC for me... __________________ -Kenny

what kind of power increase would you expect from a turbo? | | | | | 03-17-2006, 06:29 AM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Melbourne, Fl/Athens, AL Posts: 393 |
It depends on the size of the turbo. The larger the turbo, the more power you can make. however, the larger the turbo, the slower it spools up, meaning that it takes longer to get the power. Just to give you an idea, though, Mosselman's turbo kit kicks the M44 up to around 185 HP and 255 NM torque. I would guess that jon's will be around the same, depending on the size of turbo he uses and other modifications he may make. __________________ -Kenny

where is the mosselman turbo sold? The only place I know of is Korman and they wanted $8k for it (that was installed price, I'd do the work myself) | | | | | 03-19-2006, 10:00 PM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: boston Posts: 142 |
Like Variance said "it depends on the size of the turbo" If I am going to go threw with this, I will be going all the way. Total rebiuld, rods, forged pistons, bore, new cams, intercooler, crank, flywheel, big turbo and dont know what else. hopefully I will get a lot bigger numbers than that... Pray for me hahah  jon __________________
