I am looking forward to seeing this list fill up.

Can we have for just forced induction. So i can add myself next year with turbos if i ever save up enough!!

You can add yourself to this list as i doubt there will be many with a turbo!!!!

 

[simonlpearce]

Be interested to see what figures different engines and chargers put out too

I want to be on this list so bad!! Hopefully fingers crossed next year!!

How much do you think the turbos will cost to get up and running mat.??

 

[Machine monkey]

I am planing on a 2k build but it's going to be a lot of fabrication work witch I can do. It won't be a normal set up either. It will be remote meaning the turbos in the boot. It will have full as you drive mapping ability and standalone ecu so I can have multiple maps a safe 350bhp - to crazy Bhp. The system will be built on 2 small turbos with the ability to run up to 650bhp and similar tourqe. Obviously a forged engine will be needed for that. 2k should buy all the bits I need. Then rolling road and tuning time on top that could cost £££££ but should be reasonable with the ecu I am planing on using.

Thread hijack sorry Mac.

This should be an interesting thread....
2k will cost you the stand alone+mappings I'd estimate :? (or maybe you're planning on a megasquirt?)
If you go for turbo with stock ecu, try to get a ms43 ecu+wiring loom (easier to tune)

Turbo on an M54 or N52?

[paddy wright]

I think this guy needs to be on the list- loved following this thread back in the day and if anyone is thinking of supercharging their z it would be worth a read!

[mac27040]

Think he sold it

 

[Taz]

no coupes

 

[NeilP]

no coupes

Because N52.

 

[Taz]

is there no super charger for the N52?
