Uh it seems like a waste of money because it'd run you 4 grand if someone sells one. Plus that old engine wouldn't last to long and add on turbos tend to suck. By a v8 and eat the turbos for lunch. If you have to go with forced induction and your willing to rebuild the engine to match, for the same dough if you could by a supercharger. that would allow you to change boost and to get little car economy around town and big car power when you hit it. Also, turbo maintenance issues suck. :twisted:
