Gents,

Would the attached kit work on a stock bluetop 4age?

I'm looking for something special to do with my 4age,

many thanks

your screen name Cortina69.... is this going into a Cortina? If so you might want to make sure it will also fit your Cortina.


As to will it work on a stock Bluetop... the boost looks a tiny bit on the high side to run on an otherwise stock 4AGE... (8psi). 5 to 8 pounds is the range. The stock 4AGE pistons are the weak point, along with ignition timing issues - possibility of detonation - ping.

Yes, its going into a mk2 Cortina, looks like the bay will be big enough.

I have been reading that the T2 turbo might be better stock, and then find a suitable manifold to match.

Thanks for your help

It could be made to work. It also depends on what you mean by that. It would probably bolt on the 4AGE and would probably do exactly what it's designed to do.
Whether that would blow up your 4AGE or not depends on a lot of things.
To me doing something special for your car and shopping at CXracing don't really belong in the same sentence. Especially for the turbo it's self. I wouldn't waste my money on any new turbo that cost less than $600 on it's own. Less than that and you are better off buying a used high quality turbo at the junk yard or on Ebay or something.

As to what it would take to do this properly. The real answer is lots of research and reading. The quick answer is this should get you started.
