Choosing a turbocharger kit
Choosing a turbo for your turbocharger kit is not brain surgery, but with stupid choices you can miss out on the strong points of your engine's capabilities. we can all make poor choices and with hindsight it's easier to come up with a decent application, but there are some simple ways to ensure your turbocharger kit is well-matched to a base engine.
Compressor
Compressor is one of 2 most important factors of choosing turbo for your turbocharge kit. Compressor inlet bore and compressor A/R relate to the flow of the item but the best indication of whether a turbo kits suits you is a compressor's efficiency map. If you don't know exactly your engine specs, you can still do some very rough assumptions about inlet bore. Usually 40-42mm bore is capable to flow 200hp, 49-50mm to 300hp.
