Back to the Y10 Turbo's strengths. Remebering that it measures only 1049cc, the belt driven ohc engine is remarkably powerful, although affected by the inherent disadvantages in throttle response wrought by a turbocharger. The IHI turbocharger runs at a maximum wastegate setting of 0.75 bar (10 psi). This relies on an air-to-air intercooler located inside the nearside front wing (and fed through slots in the front bumper), and it blows through a Weber twin-choke carburettor. The turbo itself is located right at the front of the engine, partly for cooling and partly because within the cramped confines of the under-bonnet area (room has to be found for a turbocharger, intercooler and oil cooler over above the lesser Touring model) there is probably nowhere else to put it! Fully mapped Marelli Digiplex ignition governs the whole system guarding against detonation.
