Turbo upgrade/swap
Toying with ideas for the turbo, my x type 2.0 d has the electronic actuator, same ad the 2.2 x type d i believe, does anyone know if i could put the 2.2's turbo on mine or even the s types 2.7 turbo on? Would the ecu adapt to the larger turbo or am i getting in to a world of hell?
The S-Type is twin-turbo ('cos it's a V6, one turbo per bank) so each turbo serves three cylinders ... a 1.35 litre engine !

Yes the 2.2 turbo will fit straight on.
The only difference is the compressor wheel has double the amount of blades.
I would estimate that the difference in use would be the capability of boost pressure at higher revs on a 2.0, but I would guess the ecu would limit boost pressure.
