>From all these posts on turbos it seems that some people are happy
with the setup, especally with certain modifacations like water
injection. I suggest that the people that are happy with their setups
document them so the people that have problems can compare notes and
maybe improve their instalations. It seems that the Island setup can
be improved with water injection so this is something that should be
investigated further. I also figure timming is a major issue. It would
be good to document exactly what the base timing is and the advance.
Also how the "vacuum" advance is taken care of. There should also be a
measurement of the blowby (crankcase) pressure. How much boost is each
person using and what is their general level above sea level? As Mark
mentioned you can use more boost at higher levels above sea level than
someone at sea level without damage. This is why forced induction was
used in the first place. In aircraft it allowes the internal combution
engine to operate at great heights above sea level without a loss of
power.
