    Turbo engine building query

    I'm aware there's probably 1000 threads relating to turbos, however none quite give me the precise info I need, so here goes! I will be stripping the 172 engine I just got and rebuilding it, with the aim of going turbo from the off. However I'm not chasing numbers, so i'm stuck in some middle...

    Which exhaust for a turbo 182

    Hi, since having the turbo conversion done on my 182, the exhaust tone has been muffled by the turbo, its not half as meaty as it used to be. I know this is normal, but i am wanting a louder tone when giving it some. It does sound nice with chatter and nice bangs etc, but i just want a meatier...

    To turbo charge or not to turbo charge?

    Whats your opinion guys, would you think its more worthwhile going down the turbocharing route with my 182, or better off just buying another car eg. leon cupra R? My 182 is coming up to 95,000 on the clock and has just had the gearbox fully rebuilt. Pro's and con's of going down the turbo...

    172 Ph1 Turbo High Idle

    Afternoon gents, Finished the last track day with an issue as ever... Car was idling at 4000rpm with oil out the breather. We'd been holding above 6500rpm down the straights which would help pressurise the crankcase. The breather vents to atmosphere, not into the inlet. Fast forward today...

    Using a smaller turbo from a 1.2TCE in a 182?

    I'm looking to add a little more bhp & torque to my 182 but for little money (don't see the point in pouring £4K into it as in the end, its only a clio)! Was thinking that maybe the low boost turbo from a 1.2/1.4TCE engine could add 20 or so bhp? Possible? Also as its really low boost, would...
