7 lbs ???? That's an awfully light turbo dude. Mine weighed in at a smidge under 35 lbs. Add water injection and the total was about 40 lbs and made 13# of boost.

THE WHOLE KIT WAYS AROUND 35LBS, BUT AFTER YOU TAKE THINGS OUT TO MAKE ROOM FOR NEW THINGS IT COME TO A SEVEN POUND DIFFERENCE. THE TURBO IS A GARRETT GT28.

Ill take a built motor, with between 205 and 210 hp anyday...

The big bore, even the J&E one has some problems, liners get pretty damn thin...

Web Cams, a good head, J&E pistons, blueprint the whole thing, there you go.

Hate to say it though, but you woudl be WAY beter of in spending the money on a shock, doing the forks, and putting on a set of forged Mag wheels. not only do you get the power increase from the lessened rotating mass, but you get the improvement in turnign and stopping as well.

just my .02

Do the engine mod first, then later on if it's still not enough throw the turbo on

Hello all,

I still haven’t decided on turbo or Engine mod.
I have now installed Ohlins rear damper, HRC linkage, front revalved forks, BST rims.
The problem I have deciding is that some people say that a turbo will make more damage to the engine than severe engine mods and wise versa.

What I have found out so far is.
Ti valves are no good for long service intervals even with beryllium seats.
JE piston rings dose not last as long as OEM.
Carrillo rods or similar is needed for both mods.
APE suggested JE over bore and dry nitrous.

I will port the head anyway, lighten the crank, valve springs and intake valves and Carrillo rods regardless of what mod I’ll make.

Thanks for all the answers.
