that guy in germany is a fool. We all know that engine is from the Green Wagon from finland.

Clearly thats the W123 engine bay of the green wagon. It doesn't even look close to an R107 bay.

OK your right sorry lance don't cry i didn't pay much attention to it your right.

what is wrong with a little air tank and compressor in the trunk or under the seat, attached to the intake egr, open valve and dump all .... red lite scenario race

even 1 pis will give big gains for a split second on take off, Keep wot and ALDA will give fuel when needed

wont it kick the turbo in a the butt to get going

boost start building up @ 2100 rpm, your turbo might have problems if it start building boost @ 3000 rpm

I've got the GT22V on this car and I have a nice Holset HE341Ve waiting to be installed on another car (when I find one I want).

I will do it for $60 if it is clean and will fit together without gaps.

A friend of mine has suggested a similar setup. For those concerned with power brakes, that is what check valves are for, right?

I would be more concerned about the poor turbo would not appreciate the extra air coming through its compressor outlet. Maybe another, larger, check valve-like thingie?

IMHO, I think you should try the supercharger.

WOW what a fab job on that green thing. I mean, I love these cars...but why spend SO much time and effort on something like that. Thought it is what it is...that is some amazing fab work.

Put a boost gauge on your car...you say it takes 3000rpm to start building boost - is that just when you start to hear it? If it truly takes that long - I suspect a completely worn out wastegate. You might want to put a boost gauge just off the intake manifold and see some actual numbers.

Technically speaking, a parallel SC + turbo setup presents a NIGHTMARE of efficiency/fuel/boost vs rpm variables...I'd rather stick with one and have a 3D (vs. 4D) map. But if you do decide to go this route, please share all of your experiences, as it is really interesting!

IMHO, if the OP wants to slap a SC to his car, I say go for it. We all have to push the boundaries a bit and sometimes just because it is there is reason enough.
