not sure yet - don't even know where I'm taking oil feed from because it's going where back seat was.
Last one was fed by 3mm braided hose through a banjo fitting with quite small holes. Might go for similar setup.

I suppose it all comes down to what you want from your vehicle

If i was just going for fast sprint times 0-60 i would use a supercharger if it was a road going beast then it would have to be two t2 turbos with water injection and a capacity increase but not by a stroker kit.


All of these options are well out of my price range though so i look forward to seeing how your new conversion performs.

twin turbos was thought about - but only briefly. Too much like hard work.

Supercharging a bug is restrictive because of space. Also probably a lot more expensive.

So, turbo it is. And it is a road going car, just not all that often

why'd you say that about not going stroker? You can get a massive increase from forced induction but the bigger the engine the more you can force in ...

Ive always been under the impression that stoker engines dont rev as freely and so in turn it takes longer to spool up the turbo.

Although i may be wrong?
