Search for "Marco" and "turbo" in this forum...

I think it was 21 psi on stock components, and arround 260 HP with small modifications to rods :roll:

Hi thanks WBX for those links man these turbo motors can make horses

Just had a look at the 1.9 Turbo Cosworth pistons I got the deckheight is the same as a std 2.1 so will need slight modifications on them to get the right CR
