ke2020 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 hi all maybe someone could help me. i live in NSW and was wondering with all the new laws these days, up to what size turbo motor can i engineer in a ke20. i know you can get away with a CA18 turbo can you put a 12a turbo in there legally. looking forward to your replays guys.

styler Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Google NCOP for the guidelines. Quote
drift freak Posted September 11, 2013 Report Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Mate the rules state that if you install a turbo motor the maximum capacity must not exceed 2.5 times the original body weight when delivered. So if your KE20 weighed 740kg from factory it would be 2.5*740=1850cc turbo. You can't put a turbo 12A in because the RTA states that a 12A is 2400cc and 13B is 2600cc. My advice mate is to consult an engineer that is registered with the RTA as a designated signatory. Like styler said, goggle NSW RTA NCOP regulations and have a read, its all there :) Good Luck.
