by subiB4 on 11-01-12 06:53 AM Turboing a non turbo engine isn't a great idea because of compression ratios as non-turbo engines have higher ratios it means you wont be able to get as much boost as with a turbo engines lower compression so $2000 might be pushing it

by XoN on 11-01-12 07:02 AM What subiB4 says is true. The non-turbo engines also have softer duty pistons, since they were not designed to see the stresses a turbo engine will see. If you want to turbo it you'll be running very low boost, probably end up spending more money than a conversion, and end up going slower anyway.

by Brendan1990 on 11-01-12 06:24 PM yeah i knew about the higher comp in my n/a motor but was only thinking 5-6 psi, and maybe 8-9 on high boost.
