Hi everyone,

My name is Daniel, i'm 24 year old, I from Lisbon, and I love cars.


I have a little Opel Corsa 1.2 (90hp stock (75 from factory)) and I want to put a turbo at low boost, not for performance but to start learning, and in a year or two change to a 2.0 Turbo and get it to about 300/320Hp. I'll do most part of the job all by myself (also remap)

Hope I learn a lot here with you

Cheers
 
Hey matey welcome to T.C, pull up a chair and chillax with real professionals nutcases and everybody in between, we got it all...
 
Well today is my mother birthday so I don't have much time to expose what I want. But, first of all, thank you for the warm welcome.

In some hours i'll explain what i'm tinking to do.

Cheers
 
First of all good morning (or good night for you? :cheesy: )

Well i'm going to explain what i'm thinking to do!

I'll put turbo at low boost ratios... i've been searching and to run on stock block, the safe pressure is about 0.3 bars (4.35PSI), on a compression ratio of 10.5:1.

By the calculations i've done that gives me a compression ratio with turbo of 11.4:1.
 
Sounds about right, 0.3 bar is the safe pressure for most nasp cars with a turbo conversion, you will still however loose a certain degree of reliability, but if the engine is still in good nick and you don't drive her too hard too often you shouldn't have any problems. Still gonna cost you a pretty penny though, make sure you use some body with good credentials and best of luck to you matey.
