Which Hairdryer will be best for Busa - Bill Gaheer - 23-01-2008

Hi All,
Due to work constraints I have access to a massive resource of Turbo's from 2.2 Ltr to 50 Lts Engines Drool.

If I want I can pick one up for my bikeTrophy. All these turbos are for diesel engines question is.

1. Which one to pick Confused
2. These are branded turbos but will a diesel engine turbo suite a high rev Busa engine Confused
3. If I am able to pick one then is it worthwhile to turbo a GEN1 Busa or should I pick the GEN3 (08) and turbo it????Eek


I was thinking of picking the one which is designed for a 2.6 or 2.8 Ltr engine Trophy and start the project. Kindly recommend......

Diesel turbo's will usually be way bigger in the exhaust and smaller on the inlet than what suits the bike.
diesel rated power for a turbo is ~1/2 that of the same turbo on a petrol
a good starting point will be a 150 hp diesel turbo with small ex housing, but would need some measurements to get some idea of real potential

Getting the turbo is the easy part of turboing a busa, I think you be better of purchasing the correct turbo for the job rather than wasting time and effort trying to get the "almost right" turbo to work.
