Re: [DML] Re: Delorean Turbos, Twin Turbos? What, where, how much?

[Dick Ryan <deloreanbiker@xxxx>]

Whoa! I have driven a twin turbo equipped DeLorean
since 1987 and I doubt that anyone of this list has
put more miles on a twin turbo equipped DeLorean (over
100,000 miles) than I. 

I have never run less than 7lbs. of boost. I have
never blown out the dipstick or any of the other
horror stories aluded to in Michael's post. Smoke
does not follow me down the highway. 

Forged pistons are a very desireable upgrade, but not
mandatory as long as the boost is kept to a resonable
level, say 7 lbs. or less. 

I like Stephen Wynne, but you must remember that he
sells a alternative to turbos. He's right in that you
CAN ruin an engine with an improperly installed and
improperly driven turbo, but then, you can blow up any
engine if you don't treat it right.

Just my 2¢
