The turbo motor has stronger rods and the wrist pins are a couple mm bigger diameter. It has truly modern performance and good turbo spool because the turbine is tiny. Great motor. You can send the pump for bigger elements and get a controller from baldur in Iceland to tune the car up a bit, if desired. It is a mechanical pump with electronic rack control. Turbo motor is 606.962. Non turbo is .961 I believe.
