    K26 turbo

    I have one of alberts K26 turbos i'm planning on fitting and heading to automark to get it tuned. Is it safe/ or is there a safe way for me to fit the turbo before i drive down to automark with out damaging the engine?

    Do not connect the n75 to the plug and drive where U want, nothing can happen.

      Keep standard injectors fitted, fit the larger ones when you get to Mark.

        Thanks for that. So i take it if you disconnect the N75 the wastegate works of standard spring pressure keeping the boost lower?

            It's the fuel you need to worry about, the ECU doesn't know what turbo you are running. It does know what the injectors are supposed to deliver.

              Yeah, keep the stock injectors fitted and disconnect the N75 and you'll be fine. If you fit the larger injectors required for the K26 you'll most likely be running pig rich on stock software.
