I cannot say how this 0 psi turbo setup could be and I am curious if this can be done infact with positive results although it's a shame putting a considerable amount of money and having no boost at all!

Although I am sure this can be done and with correct calculations you can gain something from it for sure. The only problem is Money wasted vs Power/Torque gains

All you'd have to do is take an existing system, like the zage kit sold at Micro Image, modify the spring in the waste-gate and add an electronic boost controller. It doesn't mean you're locked into not using boost.

I just thought up the idea from guys using the supercharger that can run with the clutch turned off to save gas. It's just that a turbo is more efficient on a small displacement engine.
