Turbo MX 5

Post by Lou Girardin » Thu Dec 20, 2001 9:12 am

Hey Darryl,
Such definite statements sound like youv'e driven both!
Comparing 3rd gear acceleration figures with some of the turboed US cars
show the my sebring system is about .2-.3 secs slower between 3000 and 5000
rpm. Thats without larger injectors, link systems, 7.7 psi as against 15psi.
I'll stick with the sebring thanks.
It has real world performance.
Lou

You're right - how could I take advantage of such generosity.

Hey hey guys don't start a flame war with the thread that I started :)

Bear in mind that what I'm wanting to do is not just bolt on a turbo like (most)
the US guys (seem to) do. Mine is going to be a full engine buildup for
competition thats why I started the thread .. now I'm kinda wishing I hadn't !!!

Anyway if you all want to know, I've already had a tubular manifold,
intercooler, and pipework priced up. I'm now in the pros/cons stage of the
gtx/gtr engine or stock block tear down and rebuild.
