welcome to the forum and i havent heard of any of this being done to a tigra u might wanna try the UK forums
Hi,
i have heard some statement, that's a standard x16xe engine can deal whit
Low boost pressure very nicely
at first i thought that because the high compression ratio (10.5:1)
it will be very dangerous to the engine! and the F15 gearbox will not be able to deal whit more than 150Nm.
Afterwards its clarified that the F17 gearbox can be replace and fits exactly to the x16 block.
and the engine can deal up to 0.6-0.7 max boost pressure at most!
on a strandete close engine, without replacing pistons, rods, etc.
Does anybody know of any project threads at all relating to this kind of mod?
i'm considering to do this kind of turbo set up in my tigra

because the turbo set up ? or Other reasons ?
Now the curiosity kills
kimme's thread is titled "it's finished" or something along those line, u should see it in the new posts search every now n then, it's still active.
they are quite a strong bottom end, have seen personally .
