Does anything common... i.e scrapyard or ebay cars have 1100 cc engines with turbos? and does anyone know a good compression ratio on a 1100 4 pot for running one?
its currently 9.7 to 1 ;D

whats the plan chap?
Charade GTTi is 1000cc no?
Only one I can think of at the moment. 9.7:1 is alright if you don't want to go nuts
I'm presuming you want to turbocharge a 1.1 heh.
Something from a 1.4 should do the job surely. plenty of those about, renault 5 springs to mind

i have a complete R5 setup in a box in the garage and a izuzu intercooler. plannin on charging the polo for its next life as the poor old thing needs some work now. it was dead when i got it. i just brought it back to life for a few months.  id like to get a nice bit or torque out of it tho. like throw my head back a bit would be nice, and it will have the handling to match. and hopefully the looks i wish vw had given it to take on the likes of the r5. one of the reasons id prefer not to use parts from a r5 as its kinda like raping the enemy for ideas |

9.7 is a little high. but if you have good ignition control, efficient intercooling and don't break about 6-7psi boost it should be an easy home brew and work OK. all it really is trying to avoid detonation on boost. high CR can get det annway, boost bumps your geometric compression up and makes the motor more det prone. dense charge and mapped ignition (megajolt?) would help loads. |

Fiat Uno turbo? if you can find one?
Why not find a standard 1100 engine? They must be cheap as chips, so wouldnt matter if you melted it!

I'm thinking that, but I'm going to detail the engine and bay so don't realy wanna chuck any old motor in there. although saying that a formal e high comp engine must be a lil thin on the ground now?? specially in 1100 8 bolt format

what about get a G40 lump and turbo that? would have a suitable compression ratio for turbocharging and a few more CC's to boot. or are they thin on the ground too?

just a bit, not to mention lots of people want em so they have the stigma of a scene tax. I'm more into seeing what i can do with what i have realy. I'm wondering about twin carbs and a lairy cam on this lump if the turbo would be too much. anyone know what would work ? or if i could jet some 40's to run on the 1100
