 740iL turbo options
Other than finding a shop here in the area and the normal person's budget, what would keep me from being able to single/twin turbo my newly rebuilt m62 motor. I'm not looking to push 20psi or anything, but wouldn't a mild 7-9 psi help this boat move quicker. I know that the "correct" way would be to lower the compression, forged internals, yada yada....but I know I am not the only one here to turbo/sc a somewhat high compression motor. I sc'ed my 2001 Tacoma v6 with no problems, and it was a factory piece running 10psi. I want realistic options here, not smoke blown up my ass telling me to save 20k. A motor is a motor is a motor, but I want people with some experience that have done this to give me some advice on where to begin, ie turbo types, locations of the turbo, and I would think getting past the compputer bottleneck would be and issue also. Can I do some Haltech piggyback or something like the M3 guys do....help me out guys. Thanks!
