Im building a turbo 12a i already have a sterling boost prepped carb and everything i need tocomplete the build but what size jets should i use and where should i by them. The carb has been tapped for holley jets and the car is only going to run 8 psi for the time being. So what size jets should i start with so i can safely tune the car?

Thanks

It varies by climate and elevation. Get a wideband, start rich with low boost and gradually up the boost and lean the carb.

Play safe or pop goes the rotary.............

 

+1 wideband....do not play the guessing game and try reading plugs.

 

+1

 

Thanks but im just trying to figure out what to start with can you turn a boost controller down all the way and slowly increase until you startleaning out and then up the size?

 

I just noticed how completely retarded that question was^ Also what is involved in modifying turbo II manifold other than slotting the bolt holes. Like how do you solve the clearence issue with the intake?

Sorry for all the questions but i already have the T2 manifold and would like to make it work.

You'll have to make a spacer with two header flanges and some thick-walled pipe.

 

Ok guys i have another question i was reading that weber and some holleys have problems with the bowls emptying and running lean does the sterling have this issue? This is a track/weekend driver car so will i have a problems with it emptying at WOT on striaght aways?

Thanks
