I am actually about to start prepping myself a new engine to slap a turbo
on.
The bottom end will be based on a 1.8L 16V block, as shorter-throw engines
spin up faster, allowing the turbo to spool faster. Compression ratio will
be in the area of 7.5:1 or 8:1, with ~15 lbs of boost. Should be more than
enough to make about 250 wheel horsepower.
