Crystal Turbo

[tid]

Hi All, this is my first post here so easy on me (been watching for a while though).
Currently restoring Ursus 385 (ie: 8011) with intention of doing a bit of road work and was thinking i would benefit from turbocharging, anyone here done this ie:change from 8011 to 10011,and whats involved, I'm an engineer by trade so on paper doesnt look too daunting but am struggling to find info on opening the pump and limits of boost presssure, really dont want to wreck what i have for sake of few extra horses.
Thanks in advance

TB Turbos did a kit for 8011/C385, but it wasn't quite as powerful as the factory 10011. I don't know anything about pressures though !
Factory turbo Crystals had different pistons and head gaskets.
Maybe someone else on this site knows what pressures are safe for standard pistons.
Injector pumps are the same only opened up a bit
