Hello world!,

I am currently planning on setting up forced induction on my NA8.

I've been doing some research and it seems that alot of NA6 kits and NA6 setups are available while I cannot find any info for a NA8. Are there any differences in the setup?

Obviously this is going to cost quiet a bit I understand.

Anyone point me in the right direction?? remember I'm newb so anything would help!

Excuse my crappy engrish.

Recently built a clubby (Lotus 7 replica) using an NA8 engine and drive train, and fitted a mostly AVO turbo set up. We used the AVO manifold, Garret GT25??, and dump pipe. Made our own exhaust (2-1/2" throughout, 2 90d bends, 2-1/2" muffler), and a tailor made large FMIC. All up cost around $6k, inc $1000 for Microtech ecu, and $600 tuning. Could have had Haltech for same $. Tune came up with 162Kw atw, torque curve as flat as you could want.
Mate has an NA8 , and added a Rotex blower through BUllet in Qld, about the same cost, lots of hassles as it was one of the first NA8 done, and nothing seemed to fit and work properly. With Xede ecu he got 138KW atw. Has been very reliable, no issues at all over several years use.
