Adding a turbo to my n/a b-engine Posted by BAAB [Email] (#1214) [Profile/Gallery] (more from BAAB) on Tue, 29 May 2012 22:52:06 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I have been thinking about adding a turbo to my '79 n/a b-engine SAAB, but have no idea of where to look for turbo specific parts (exhaust manifold, turbo, intercooler, plumbing, etc.). I figure getting all the original turbo goodies that came on the SAABs back in the '70s is not going to happen, so if that is the case, is there a recommended turbo kit that can be had without breaking the bank, mine of which is very limited.
I understand that adding a few pounds of boost to a stock b-engine can be done without worries to the engines internals and that is all I am after (just a mild performance gain).
Any ideas or sharing what you have done successfully would be greatly appreciated.
