Was thinking about building a 1380 turbo engine, what are the pro's and con's of this, what turbo would be best t2 or t3. Bore flexture, at what boost will this become a problem, is it worth fitting a t3? Any input will be of help, also looking for a complete metty turbo engine to use also can any one help.

Mant thanks barkiboi.

large over bores was a problem with the A series engine with blow by

with the A+ engines it seems that a 1380 turbo engine with modern pistons now available with better ring sealing etc

even with a turbo this isnt evident at all

my next engine is going to be a 1380 with a T3

altough iam concidering a T 2.5 would be just right!

AVONBAR! have just brought out forged acralite pistons with 18cc dishes to cater for 1380cc high boost turbo motors.

these are excellent to say the least.*wink*

Like Benross said...no problems at all with the 1380 turbo's these days. If Bored correctly and built correctly they work just fine. Good Torque on low boost.
p.s. Benross if you ever come to see us at Avonbar i'll make you a cup of tea and biscuits.
