OK, here's a funny question. Using a 106 in an MSA championship means keeping to a 1400cc capacity limit. There are 3 ways of doing that.
1] 1.4 n/a petrol (can be tuned to any limit, it's only capacity that counts)
2] 1.0 turbo petrol
3] 2.0 turbo diesel.
I'm not looking for the 'easy' option, as I want a project that's a bit different, so I'm not really into building up a race 1400. Which turbo route would make most sense for a 106 Sprint car? Was going with a 1.0litre petrol turbo, but thinking I would get more useable power from a 1.9 or 2.0 TD. Yes, I suppose a lot heavier (how much?).
What do you all think?
