Hey Bernard, long time no read on the BB .

Single turbo is tempting, especially after reading about Garth's single set up on GTV6.com (is he on the BB?). Only issue I see is that I want to retain my power steering pump and a single turbo set up would put the manifold very close to it. I figure a twin turbo set up would give more heat clearance for the pump.

2nd gear at 80ks just seams like it's all noise and no go (not such an issue in your 24 valve. Yeh I've seen some of your vids ). 3rd would have been better but I'm just use to a more lazy, broad torque curve type of engine. That's my ambition. To achieve 1 for the Alfa

BTW, I was only trying to keep up with, not overtake the (big fat, crap aerodynamics) 4 Runner, hence my annoyance
