Hi all,

 

Going to be building a turbo engine soon, budget may be tight so going to try source a metro turbo distributor for the time being. Although I have just come across this...

 

What are people's thoughts on these 'turbo' distributor, personally I don't think it will be the same...

if your gonna turbo your car you should do it properly, go megajolt or something similar

It might do if it has the same advance curve as the 59d fitted to the first Metty turbos.

 

However, the description seems a bit vague, with all the other models listed. If you have a dizzy you could put a stop on the centrifugal advance for much less.

It's not for my car bud, if it was me, I'd go megajolt...

 

Cheers for the input people. Will try and see if any of the dizzy's I have in the garage match up to the Metro turbo dizzy part no.

Just get the welder out then and weld it up to stop it advancing
