[Jobesy_R19]

Im after some info on tuning of F7P engine on Reno 19 16v, its got a decat but im after a scorpion exhaust system ( cat back ), also just been given a chipped ecu, thinking of putting a Reno 5 turbo gearbox on my engine with 5 turbo clocks, any1 dun this, suppose to make it quicker, any info greatly appreciated :(

Don't know what the ratios are like in the r5 box vs the 19 but things to consider are if its accelerating quicker, either you will have a very big jump to 5th gear and similar top end, or the top end will be slower but you will get there faster.

Now if its longer you will take longer to accelerate and maybe never reach top end due to running out of puff in the engine.

not sure why you would need the clocks unless the gear box is electronic (which i cant see being on a r5)

Will look a bit odd with the turbo gauge and no turbo tho!
