Have a 12 HP 2 Cylinder Volvo that I am either going to have to replace with a larger one or beef up with the addition of a turbocharger. My questions are these:
1. Is there one made to fit or adapt to this motor?
2. What would the ballpark cost be?
3. How much would it boost the efficiency and HP of the engine?
4. Where are such things found?
Thank you for your help,
Paul Mitchell |

G'Day Paul,
Twin cyl engines do not turbo that well due to exhaust gas pulsing; the costs involved for the results you would get make a NEW proposition look preety good.
Cheers,

My mechanic has a completely rebuilt 18hp 2002 Penta motor with trans, 0 hours, all new OEM parts used down to motor mounts, can be bench started and tested, 1 year warranty. Harness, instrument panel and key included. He is asking $4000 i think, contact him directly (Claus) ClausMarine@msn.com or 561-383-5055
