ah i dont know s**t about turbos so hopefully someone here can help.
what would be a good setup to run on this engine? I should get an intercooler, since there's no reason to pump hot air into the engine. by the way, no i am not going to do an engine swap, since these motors are cheaper to fix or replace if that is nessesary. are there any management programs that come pre set, so all you have to do is fine tune it? just anything you can think that would help would be greatly appreciated.thanx in advance

I'll be the first (and probably not the last) to say it .... why the fook would you turbo a Y7? What a waste .... really. Get a swap, get even a Y8 .... don't do a mini-me .... they're not really designed for boost, people do it, but a Y8 would be a better platform ..... just no, don't turbo a Y7.

riiight.. i know someone putting down 193whp, 187tq on his stock y7 and has been for a while... why don't you line up next to him and go for a spin ;)

and i'm shooting to far exceed that with my y7/y8 mini-me hmt setup.. just wait buddy..just wait

a mini me y7/y8 is a y8
its the same damn thing, they both like bearings
u can make around 230whp easily with any d16

not entirely tru. a y8 has a MUCH better tranny and slightly thicker rods.

but with the mini-me and a y8 hg u'll have a higher compression than a stock y8
