Turbo engines explained
With all the talk about turbo engines this year, I thought it might be a good idea to understand some of the technical differences between these and the S2000 'normally aspirated' units.
With the help of Mountune boss, David Mountain, I put together a 'layman's guide' to turbo engines and how they work - hopefully it helps with understanding where the differences come from...

Hi focusfan,
The base engine has to be from within the manufacturer's range (or group, in the case of VW, SEAT, Audi for example).

Nice thread and post too. Thanks for sharing.
If this race didn't appeal to them they should just quit watching the sport. From start to finish something was going on, and often at the front of the field.
