I don't know I do just fine with mine up here . In my 25-30 hp / 35-45 lb-ft Up HERE my 1991 Jetta 1.6L D .milehighassassin said:Here in Colorado I feel a turbo is must have. At least for a small motor.
Too much of a power loss with elevation.
40-45 city / 32-38 highway mpgs-( what I see running around @ 30-65 mph city / 65-80 mph highway ) on the front range/high plains of Colorado powered by 1.6 L IDI diesel engine 52 hp/ 71.5 lb-ft @ sea level desinged in the mid 70s .
0-60 @ sea level with times in around 11 secs , 16-18 secs up here . I have no trouble living with that as most Americans could do if they chose to . I might add that is up here where the normal freeways speeds are 60-90 mph .
