Calculating required pressure ratios and air flow
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi chaps,

My project is progressing nicely and I am starting to have doubts over the efficacy of the T2 I have strapped to the back of the motor.

I have started to have a sniff around and look at small capacity turbos which could suit the car but I have no idea how to actually measure the suitability in technical terms when looking at Pressure Ratio and Air Flow.

Is there a lay-man's explanation or guide to calculating an engine's requirements and matching them to an alternate turbo.

Cheers

Dave
