Rustynuts Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Briefly, Yes I suppose you can, but it's a whole lot of work. Far easier and cheaper to buy a different car with a turbo engine and sell yours. You don't just buy a turbo and bolt it on, as you need the vacuum controls to go with it, the ECU from a turbo car to drive the controls, the manifolds, you have to lower the compression ratio and god knows what else. Basically, you can, but you're not going to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustynuts Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Just look for the right car in the first place. You haven't got the time, energy, and money to start fitting turbos to a none turbo engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
