G'day guys, I'm sure this question would seems stupid to alot of you and fairly uncommon, but I thought this would be the right place to bring a question like this to the table.
What would be the best way to either remove or make the turbo redundant on an R33?
I'm only asking this question because I intend on buying an R33 within about 6 months (a heads up for anyone looking to sell something close to stock standard) and I intend on keeping the car well past attaining my full licence. So, having said that, I'd much rather spend a small amount of cash having it made redundant than spending big on buying a turbo and having it fitted / tuned when the time comes that I'm legally allowed to drive with one on.
I have been told that it is possible to 'jam' the turbo. From what I was told it would still wind up on acceleration but generally force no air into the engine therefore still somewhat operational for use further down the track but still not working so I could drive on the road legally. This apparently can come with an engineers certificate proving it doesnt work so I wouldn't be getting in any trouble with the law.
It would be much appreciated if anyone could give me a heads up on this.
Many thanks,
Andrew
