  1. Hi ! As in the topic : Turbo conversion of (gasoline) Citroën BX would be a natural thought when considering the obvious potential of the cars low weight . :) First, one might think of the "16V" 1.9 litre - already w some healthy speed (148bhp) , but actually both the 1.6 litre 8valve and even the small 1.4 litre engines seem interesting to my mind - the deciding factor obviously being the low weight of the car. Even a modest 100bhp per litre in the 1.6 engine appears tempting.. :ph34r: ( better torque band than in a relatively highly tuned normal aspirated engine ). Anyone with tips ? Comments ? Except from older versions of the BX, all engines are fuel injeccted, from what I gather. That definitely helps a turbo conversion. And... Keeping boost pressure low - say 0,5 bar - would make low compression superfluous to an extent. Thanks for your answer ! Cheers ! 'G'
