Hello all, a newbie here!
Been reading lots of Advantages-vs-Disadvantages-of-Turbos articles here and there. I must confess, to my surprise, the list disadvantages is usually a longer. However, the disadvantages seem to apply more often – but not always – to “Turbocharging engines that were initially built as “naturally aspired” ones. Example turbocharging a 2H engine, though as the put it, some people get along with it”.
So, my question:
What about the other way around? That is, except for the loss of horsepower/ torque (and maybe fuel economy), is there any ADVANTAGES and/or DISADVANTAGES in “removing a turbo” from an engine that came with a factory one, such as the 12H-T, specifically?
