Turbo on Disco 1 V8 Petrol
#11
If you want to run low boost without any ECU tuning, you can do a blow through MAF and a rising rate fuel pressure regulator.... For safety sake I'd probably add a water/meth kit as the ECU is going to try to lean out the mixture unless you're flooring it. The proper way would to be use an aftermarket ECU.
In my experience though, adding turbo's to vehicles that didn't come with them from the factory is a game left for those that really know what they are doing and are willing to deal with blown headgaskets and cracked ringlands.

Thanks for all the replies. I'll give it a miss!

Don't put any kind of force induction on a rover V8. They already struggle with reliability as a naturally aspirated engine.
If you still have your heart set on a turbo engine, maybe you could swap in a 300Tdi or like a 2JZ or something. Probably expensive to do so, but if you want to do that then go ahead. Best option for a turbo.
