Turbocharging XU10J4R...
#1
Currently looking at the 2.0 16v engine/box sat around out of the parts cabriolet & wondering if refreshing that and adding some boost would be a fun project to go in the White XS.

I believe the engine is going to be an XU10J4R (it's from a Ph2.5 306 Cabrio.) and have heard some good things about them although not had a moment to research much more than some YT videos and a quick squiz on here.  Just after opinions/advice about how much power the stock bottom end can handle, potential weak points, OEM part-swap upgrades (like HDi rods in an XUD sort of thing) etc.


Plan would be to pull it apart and give it a refresh since it's done 160+k and felt tired compared to the 50k lump in the green cabby, so any bits to address while I'm in there would be good. (If I'm going to be swapping rods for example, rather find out before I buy new shells).

Cheers for any advice/experience. I'm off to do a bit more research now lol.
