Default ecotrons

Just wondering if anyone has any experience or even heard of these guys before? But it seems that they have quite a bit of small engine performance packages, even a turbocharger designed for our engines. The only reason I ask is the little 10hp Diesel of mine needs more oompf in my opinion.

I installed their EFI system on a Scooter for a Friend. Works really well and is easy to tune.

This turbo is too big even for a 420cc diesel. It's designed for a 3 cylinder Yanmar at about 1.3l displacement.

Looks to be off a subaru legacy. Should be an IHI RHB5 frame turbo. Subaru specific flanges.

Search for RHB5 flange and you should get a few.

It came off a 2.0L gas engine. It' waay too big for a 10hp diesel.

I talked to my mechanic, and he told me it would create a couple pounds, on the plus side i won't have to worry about over pressurizing my cylinder. If nothing else, I'll have all plumbing taken care of for the 'right-sized' turbo.

Scratch the idea, lets do it right ...My new IHI RHB31 just arrived today with the complete flange kit, the oil lines and gaskets should get here by tomorrow.
