Read the guys topic on Shop Talk Forums about his 1915 turbo that he has been building. I had been strongly considering a turbo type1 but that topic turned me away. Seems like there was way too many variables.
I have 1776 cc type 1 engine with dual carbs. Very mild, nothing special at all! If I were too add up all of the total costs that have gone in to the engine including repairs, etc., it would far exceed the cost of a 2270 from Aircooled Technology. That makes me insane!!
I just believe his engines, compared to anything else and the costs that come with them, will pay for themselves.
