Okay, I'm stuck.
Turbos. What the feck should I do? I've convinced myself that I should 'build' Ariadne around the turbos, as they will ultimately peg the car back, and I don't want to have to spend time and money twice on things like downpipes, injectors and mapping, etc etc.
But it looks like a shedload of work, and I really can't decide if I should subject myself to such an undertaking.
Okay, let's get some thoughts and goals down on paper - that might give me a start.... I hasten to add that this is very simple thinking right now... Back to basics for a bit!
*The standard turbos are already whizzing their nuts off as standard, and if you wang up the boost, they turn into fan heaters!
* I want increased performance. However, I would sooner get more air FLOW into the engine - avoiding excessive adiabatic heating.
* This in turn would allow me to spend more time improving flow and such, than fighting heat and worrying about turbo durability.
* My turbos are getting towards near the end of their useful service life. There's some smoke these days, the cyclic noise of noisy bearings, and a lot of oil in the intake pipes - so I do need to replace them, ultimately.
* I want increased performance to a level that maintains day to day drivability, the twin turbo responsiveness, yet offers a lot of power.
So, if you would be kind enough to help me distill my thoughts into some sense, please!!
