From what i remember they arent built as strong but i may be talking rubish
RE: put a turbo on - moonstoneblue - 16-04-2013
so would just probably better off getting a dt engine and converting it

Engine swap can be done in a day quite easily anyway.

Nad engines have different piston compression ratios, injectors and manifolds. Dont bother wasting your time, just drop a cheap xud9te in, way easier

If this is just a field car for lols then bang a blower on it! Wack your nad fuelling right up, will need to find an oil feed though

I'm with Dave here, whack on a blower, if it blows then it would just be scrapped anyway so you may aswel make use of it.

I had a thought the other day, NAD's have higher compression right?
Surely that would mean you'd just run less boost? Obviously if the other parts like rods and pistons aren't as strong at DT ones it going to end badly.

bit of a crack for a field car sums this up though...

funnily enough i can imagine it being less work to swap engines than trying to put an engine on an na....
RE: put a turbo on - Dave - 16-04-2013
yeh but you wont need to connect up stuff properly, IE turbo return back to the filler neck, and if you didnt wanna bother with an exhaust etc you could do it in half a day
RE: put a turbo on - moonstoneblue - 16-04-2013
cheers for the advice going to put a turbo on and wait to it goes bang as can get a dt engine for 100 off a mate to put in to it went it goes
ps fuel is out 1 turn and a half on a lucus
RE: put a turbo on - Dave - 16-04-2013
haha get a bosch on it,
on a totally unrelated note, I saw this thread title and instantly thought of the song 'put a donk on it' but obviously 'put a turbo on it' is just so much more win..
RE: put a turbo on - Piggy - 16-04-2013
ozone is selling some HUGE turbos......defo should be done
RE: put a turbo on - moonstoneblue - 06-05-2013
the straight finally kicked the bucket and im wondering how hard it would be to drop a dturbo in it is there much difference in the wiring and what would need to be changed
rip straight d
RE: put a turbo on - ozonehostile - 06-05-2013
no electrical differences atall, the engine will drop straight in (unles you put a massive turbo on the back)
RE: put a turbo on - moonstoneblue - 06-05-2013
great job will give me and a few mates a job to do at the week end
thanks for your help
