Right im trying to collect as much infomation that i can to turbo my saxo VTS. The things i need to know are

Is the best turbo going to be a t25.
What compression do i need my engine to be at
What is the best way to lower the compression
shall i put forged pistons and rods in there

I am looking to use an intercooler of a doner car.

Im asking all the above as i want to do the turbo myself

Hey there t25 seems quite a popular choice from what i have read on this site, most people lower the compresion by fitting low compresion pistons. I have also found that some people use 2 head gaskets to lower compresion. I am currently on a quest to collect ifomation on turbo charging. You should check out GMC Motorsport for pistons. Hope that helps a bit.

If ya want a good list of parts ect on a very fast turbo vts go into the search and type in car spec, and look for Ratty as the topic starter. Ratty seems to know everyting to do with turbos.
