Carbed turbo conversion

Featured Replies

Well the time has come to sell this on. i have not had it long but I have to let it go i was gunna put this in a mk2 and after bolting it all in and getting parts organised I realised I would need to cut the front brace out to allow room for oil cooler inter cooler and the down pipe. So with time not on my side and buying another car this has to go. The kit comes with

8v turbo manifold

T2/T25 hybrid turbo

turbo oil feed

refurbished renault 5 turbo carb and solex inlet manifold for a polo

random bits of 3 inch downpipe

vaccum advance canister for turbo setups

renault 5 turbo fuel pressure regulator

3 bar fuel pump

So all you need to finish this is a sump with oil return and intercooler and oil cooler and some boost pipes

I would advise not doing this on a mk2 I know the mk3 have more room in front of the engine so shouldn't have a problem. I'm sure it can be done in a mk2 if you have more time then I do.

Looking for £420 as I have bought the pump since buying of Eric for any pics of it in a mk 2 bay have a look at his build thread

Quick question, what does the pressure regulator look like?

They look like this....

wouldnt you need to lower the compression to fit this? sounds like an awesome conversion but unless going on a g40 bottom end..

any pics?

Being as the the early 8v engines have a low compression ratio of around 8 - 1 so u can safely run 6-8 psi on a healthy engine and get around 140-150 bhp.
