not nessecerily in this forum, but i am sick of people saying "yeah, i'm gona put a turbo my (insert random, naturally aspirated vehicle here) next weekend. i expect to get another (take upper guess at power gains, and times by 12) rwkW"
so, to get around being annoyed at people all the time, i decided i would get some ideas for contribution to an artice that i can link to when i see a stupid post.
anyway, so far, the points i have are:
<-----Common----->
- may need to lower compression
- will need new inlet manifold/exhaust manfold
- new exhaust system
- upgraded drivetrain (clutch, gearbox(maybe), differential(maybe)
- upgraded suspension
- upgraded brakes
- n/a engine is not built to take forced induction (less oil channels and oil pump)
- requires MAP sensor to cope with boost and fuel delivery (Lambolica)
- piping and intercooler (Lambolica)
- upgraded cooling system
- heat shielding of master cylinders, lines (Skip)
- blow off valve (atmospheric or plumb-back) (Skip)
<-----Supercharger Specific----->
- actual cost and finding suitable supercharger
- brackets for supercharger (Lambolica)
- new pulley at crankshaft for supercharger belt (Lambolica)
- wiring of supercharger (Lambolica)
- oil return lines (skip)
<-----Turbocharger Specific----->
- actual cost and finding suitable turbocharger
- oil return lines/water cooling plumbing (Skip)
anything else i have missed?
