Don't want to rain on your parade Wilbo, but I'm hopeful we won't have to see another thread like Evil_Foetus's where the leading 5M experts answer all the 5M-TE questions and provide knowledge/parts/help only for the whole exercise to end in "I'm buying a drumkit, thanks anyway" Confused

gianttomato, I totally agree with viewpoint, the whole project is hopefully going to be a very budget learning experience...

You silly man. No learning experience with engines/turbo's can be described as budget. If I were in your shoes, and had the required cash for an already built and balanced setup, I know which decision I'd make. And it's not to fart-arse around finding all this stuff for a motor that prob needs rebuilding anyway.

I fully understand that huge power is never going to happen with a 5M-E, turbo or not!


MS-75 will be able to tell you big power can be got from these engines. It's just that it's not a very worthwhile exercise in light of the 7m/1j/2j availability these days.

But if I can get another 50+hp for a few hundred $$$ and a bit of time Very Happy

If it was that easy.... try lots of time, and lots of money, and lots of hassle finding parts. Horsepower isn't cheap

However given that I have located a whole car with complete M-TEU, I might as well explore the idea, blow a HG or two and move on to greener pastures Smile

Well, it's your time and money you are spending. That's not to say I wouldn't do exactly the same thing in your shoes, it's just not the sensible thing Cool
