Question Turbo ???

What would be a good turbo for my car? The engine is in the shop getting rebuilt. Bored, bigger pistons, port and polish, machining the cams, stiffer valve springs, rebuilt the water pump and last but not least polyurethane engine mounts. I'm going to post my car later once its back on the road and tell you guys if it was worth the money.

Re: Turbo ???

What compresstion pistons are you putting in?
Why are you having it bored? That will make the cylender wall's weaker.

Re: Turbo ???

I'm not sure what compression pistons they are putting in. He told me that he is only going to bore it a little to straiten it out.

Would'nt that just be Cylinder Honing?

The compresstion ratio is very important when it comes to turbo charging. With out knowing that before you turbo is asking for trouble.
