Turbos on rotaries are a bit different with power levels, what is a certain power for a piston engine isn't as much for a rotary, that T88 is a 1000bhp turbo for a piston engine, can only manage 6-700 bhp on a rotary.

Anyhow, back to the main questions lol

What turbo does the V40 have? I have some T25/28 parts laying around, so might be able to make a hybrid turbo lol
You say 2 step - is that a dual stage boost setting? That's what I'm looking at with the T4, but about half the power.... Just that trying to put it down through the front wheels only is even more of an issue! I do know that the rotary power delivery is smooth though and copes better with a larger turbo..!

As for the V40 turbo diesel, I don't really have any knowledge on those I'm afraid. If you haven't done so already, might be worth a post in the diesel section, as well as the S/V40 section?

Cheers
