June 28, 201214 yr comment_612637 4age in ke20 http://www.rollaclub...ther-4age-ke20/ i'm going to have to do exhaust manifold anyway.. I am going to want the turbo eventually. I have oil lines on the block (ae92 oil cooler) If i do it now i can allow for piping etc when i do engine mounts etc.. On the downside i have never done my own conversion before, will the turbo make it a real nightmare? will i ever finish it lol? Oh I forgot to mention i have a genuine td05 13g in perfect condition and i can buy a top mount rwd manifold for $140... Edited June 28, 201214 yr by crunk81us Report

June 28, 201214 yr comment_612651 I don't think you'll find many people on RC that ever think it's not time to turbo :lol: The only reason I can think of not to is if you plan to get this engineered. But I think you would get stickered if you engineered without turbo then added the turbo... Report
June 28, 201214 yr comment_612658 I guess the only other considerations would be, what computer are you using and is it a turbo block? The compression on NA AGE's is getting up there for turbo and the computer probably won't handle it well. The injectors are probably too small too. If you've got that covered then the answer would have to be a resounding yes :) Report

If you've got that covered then the answer would have to be a resounding yes :) I think in qld i can engineer it with a turbo.. i have to have a chat to a mate of a mate who happens to be a mod plate engineer dude. I was going to get it going on the standard computer (before i got the turbo idea) It is a n/a smallport block, and tbh i don't really know what is inside it. I was told it had forged internals and all balanced and was a 'freak' of an engine. I don't really know if i believe it, i'll be happy if its just a good standard runner. If they went to the trouble of forged pistons, is it likely they bumped up the compression ratio while they were at it? Edited June 28, 201214 yr by crunk81us Report
