Not many folks turbocharging the NC. Are you going to use a kit or DIY? Is this a street car? CARB?

We'll be waiting for the pics as soon as you take delivery.

It sounds like it's going to be a fun project.

Keeps us in the loop.

Ok man this 2 liter is just a cycle gasoline motor therefore throw on a turbo and some sort of cooling fmic,WI etc. And then figure up your power gaols from the turbo and size the fuel system to match it all while giving yourself the ability to tailor timing to your specific needs.
Bottom line here is dude. That if you wanna make real cash and see what the 2 liter will hold up to then u throw a Megasquirt or some other standalone on there, with a snail and have some fun. Yes begi has alot of expereince etc and you could glean facts from them on specific problems but ultimatley they begin in the same place you do. I find it very funny how people are mystified with turbo technology and engine management its simple stuff just takes abit of reading, and creative thinking.
