 Topic: has anyone installed a turbo a 226 gas engine
Posted: 17 Apr 2010 at 3:55pm |
Did m@w or any body make a kit to turbo a wd45 or d17? If anyone has installed a turbo on one did it work well?

I thought you tried this? Didn't someone talk about enclosing the carb so it would be pressurized and withstand the pressure ? Wouldn't it be just like anything else if you had a custom manifold?
