Turbo Upgrades for the ecoboost?
#13
I don't know enough about boosted engines, Thats why i don't comment on alot of these post.
MAYBE!, some people should try my theory.
^^This thread i do have a answer, but not for the OP. ^^

I do so that's why I post. You can put much larger turbos on engines and still keep factory driveability or near factory driveability and spool and improve efficiency. These turbos may be able to keep up with the little tuning we can do now but we are at the edge of their efficiency range so they can't make all the boost this engine could ever handle. We have yet to see what kind of boost this engine can handle.

The Livernois 93v2 tune and exhaust is making in the neighborhood of 500 hp at the crank. I think another 50-100 hp is a reasonable expectation with upgraded turbo's.

With better/bigger turbo(s) we will be able to find the limits of this engine's internals!

From my visit to Full Race and a tour of their shop and seeing the Eco-boost compared to a Nissan GTR block. We are going to have to push this motor beyond 750+ HP before we start seeing parts fly.
