lacey Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Hi everyone, im new to this and was wondering if i could get some advice. I've recently brought a mk2 xr2 with the intention of keeping the standard carb (obvouisly with some modifications) and running a turbo like that of the turbo technics versions. But as usual i got a bit carried away and jumped at the chance to buy a set of forged pistons very cheap. So my new idea is to run an rs turbo engine as i'd have the oil feed and return for the turbo, a t3 turbocharger and a set of twin 45 carbs with a sealed airbox to allow air from an intercooler. I know this way wouldn't be as effective as efi with management but would be alot cheaper. I can't see any possible flaws as this seems fairly straight foward, apart from setting the carbs up which i can imagine will be quite tricky. But basically wanted a few opinions before i start spending my hard eaned cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twin40_nipps Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 is it even possible to run turbo and twin45's at the same time and tbh what would be the point when just fitting the RS throttle body would be alot simpler or am i talking gobble-dee-!Removed!
