I've been looking at alternative turbos to my T2 and another for the next project.

It ocurred to me that there is a wealth of information out there but it is not all in one place. Plus 75% is irrelevant to us.

It would be very useful to have pictures, model nos, compressor maps etc all in one place.

I'm sure we could quickly compile the info. I am happy to do a lot of it myself.

Could it be hosted by Turbominis?

Brilliant idea. I have been looking at what sort of turbo can go on a mirage setup other than a T2. This would help me a lot.

Thread revival!

Was there every any progress with this? It would be a great asset and would also make for good reading when we are bored at work. Especially if we had maps and info on different comp. housings etc.

I could put up all my info on the GT15 I have, Tel could post up about his GT15, GT1752s are quite popular now so we could have those aswell as the usual T2 and T3. Theres bound to be a few oddball turbos that people have researched too. And then there's all the V variants

Bloody hell this would be a good idea, I've just spent the last hour searching for blooming compressor maps.

 Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...
