Presently just completed fitting racer cam i am looking into turbo charging a Chim with a low pressure turbo system.

Objective to increase the performance without reducing the reliability

Has anyone put a turbo on a chim and if so what was the result.

Dunno about a Chim but there was a twin turbo griff 500 knocking about a while back...

GreenV8S has a supercharged 4.6 in his V8S....

TVR Power were showing something off at the monster meet - might be worth a call...?

I think Joolz (Trackcar Solutions) is turboing a 4.0 this winter, would be well worth giving him a call. He also seems to have a line on a good but inexpensive aftermarket ECU.

I've put turbo's on rovers before and helped with a blown griff. Main difficulty is fitting the turbo up front in a custom 'Y' section. My cast manifolds may fit but I hadn't designed those when doing the griff work.
