Turbo Teen

I like how you're using a Turbonetics turbo I don't see those very often. It's nice you can find E-85 too, almost all the gas stations around here stopped selling it.

Some day I will do a turbo build but I don't think it will be for my Duster, I think a '70s smogger B-body would be my choice. Too many other big ideas for the Duster (G3 Hemi swap and no I won't turbo that LOL).

The turbonetics is nicely sized, 62 mm compressor, .84 a/r. Full boost by 2800 rpm or so. My brother in law says they use a turbonetics on their army drones with common failures. Not sure why. Micky mouse rebuilds and balance jobs I’d suppose.

I’ve heard the gen 3s like to lose valve seats on high boost but I’ve seen a supercharged gen 3 go 10s of thousands of miles without issue. A smogger big block is almost made for boost.
