Turbo Mini Forums

Since deciding to learn about turboing, and actually turbo my engine about a month ago I've spent a fair amount!

I've got

- T2 turbo from a renault R5.
- Mirage manifold
- 12g295 head
- Gen challenge racing turbo carb & inlet manifold

On the list

- K&N air filter

Still to find..

- Intercooler of some sort
- Pipework and all the other gubbins
- Something or other about fuel return and a fuel pump

A friend told me that I could use either an Mpi or Spi fuel tank, as this would cover both. I've found an Spi tank on ebay, all complete, for a good price. Would this be suitable?

the tank will be suitable yes, but dont run silly boost! im not too sure what you can run with these tanks but i ran 10psi without fueling problems.

have a look at this website, will help you out a lot.

cheers, ill get a bid in on it

oh no, i wont be, the last thing i want is a grenade inside the engine!

is there a standard intercooler that everyone likes to use?

Iirc the standard SPI pump puts out about 15psi or so, so 10psi of boost is about the max you can run on one of these tanks.
The MPI one is fine if you want to run higher boost.

Well I'm only running a T2 on a 998, with fairly standard innards, so I won't be running a high boost

You can always change the pump at a later date. Im running a Ford puma pump in my spi tank.

1/4mile in 13.2sec @ 111 terminal on 15psi

yep, the in tank pumps all seem to be of a similar design, something from a ford or honda will definatly fit, just make sure its for a multipoint injection engine and it'll be fine :)
